I’m relatively new at cooking and sometimes I can’t tell if I’m frying or sauteeing. What is the difference? I like to eat and cook healthy, and would like to avoid the frying. (And to think of all the times I probably was!) Thank you for your help!

Satueeing uses a small amount of fat in the pan, just enough to keep the product from sticking. Frying implies that the entire product is submerged in fat and cooks the product.
Using about a tablespoon of safflower, canola, or olive oil (not extra virgin) for sauteeing is the best way for most products like chicken breasts, grilled cheese, vegetables, etc. in a medium sized satuee pan.

Sauteing is done with very little fat/oil and moving the food around .

Sauteeing to me is using a small amount of butter or oil, like maybe a tablespoon. Frying is using a lot.

Sauteeing is when you are cooking with wine or wine reductions, usually and no grease or oil involved. The sautee steam cooks the food, and forms a concentrated liquid with the meat, for example. Frying is just cooking the food with oil, either submersed or lightly cooked in oil.
