About Chicken thigh with skin and bone
Chicken thighs with skin and bone are a flavorful and versatile protein option enjoyed in cuisines worldwide, including American, Asian, Mediterranean, and Latin dishes. The skin adds richness and helps retain moisture during cooking, while the bone enhances flavor. A 3.5-ounce portion provides about 209 calories, 17 grams of protein, and 15 grams of fat, making it a good source of complete protein, essential for muscle repair and overall body function. It also contains key nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamins B6 and B12, supporting immune and metabolic health. However, the skin contributes to higher fat and calorie content, including saturated fats, so moderation is recommended if you're limiting fat intake. Opting to remove the skin can reduce fat while still retaining much of the meat's flavor and nutritional benefits. Chicken thighs are particularly celebrated for their juicy and tender texture, making them ideal for roasting, grilling, or simmering in stews.
