Morphology

breaded = bread (transparent) = bread + ed

Formed by the verb 'bread' + -ed to make an adjectival past participle meaning 'coated with breadcrumbs', a direct and regular derivation.

Etymology

Breaded comes from the simple word bread, because cooks used small pieces of bread called crumbs to cover food before frying or baking. So breaded means 'covered with bread', which explains the crunchy outer layer.
