Chicken thighs with bone and skin are a flavorful and tender cut of poultry enjoyed across a variety of cuisines, from American barbecue to Asian stir-fries. The skin locks in moisture during cooking, enhancing juiciness and providing a crisp, satisfying texture when roasted or grilled. Rich in protein, this cut supports muscle growth and repair, while also offering essential vitamins like B6 and B12, and minerals such as zinc and selenium that benefit immune health. However, the presence of skin increases its fat content, particularly saturated fat, making it higher in calories compared to boneless, skinless options. When eaten in moderation and paired with nutrient-dense sides like vegetables or whole grains, chicken thighs with bone and skin can be part of a well-rounded diet, providing comfort and depth of flavor to your meals while offering important nutritional benefits.
