Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are a flavorful cut of poultry that's popular in many global cuisines, from American barbecue to Asian stir-fries. This portion consists of the juicy thigh meat attached to the bone, with the skin intact, adding richness and moisture during cooking. Nutritionally, chicken thighs are a good source of high-quality protein, essential B vitamins like niacin and B6, and vital minerals such as phosphorus and selenium. The skin contains fat, which contributes to its crispy texture when cooked, but it is also higher in saturated fat and calories compared to skinless options. While the bone enhances flavor, it can make preparing the cut slightly more challenging. Though indulgent, the high fat content provides great energy for active lifestyles and lends itself well to hearty, satisfying dishes. Removing the skin can help reduce calorie and fat intake for those seeking a leaner alternative.
