About Chicken thigh without skin
Chicken thigh without skin is a versatile protein source commonly used in a variety of global cuisines, including Asian, Mediterranean, and American dishes. It is succulent and rich in flavor, even without the fatty skin. A 3-ounce serving contains approximately 135 calories, 23 grams of protein, and 3 grams of fat. It is lower in fat compared to its skin-on counterpart, making it a healthier choice for those watching their fat intake. Chicken thigh is also an excellent source of essential vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin B6, niacin, phosphorus, and selenium, which contribute to energy production and immunity. While it has more fat than chicken breast, the darker meat offers a richer taste and remains a lean option when the skin is removed. It pairs well with spices, marinades, and sauces for balanced, nutritious meals.
