Cosce di Pollo, Italian for "chicken thighs," is a popular dish in Italian cuisine, often prepared with a combination of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and vegetables. The chicken thighs are typically roasted, grilled, or braised to enhance their tender texture and rich flavor. This dish often contains ingredients like rosemary, thyme, white wine, and sometimes tomatoes, making it aromatic and nutrient-packed. Chicken thighs are an excellent source of protein and contain important vitamins like B6 and niacin, which support energy metabolism and overall health. While they are higher in fat compared to chicken breast, using olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. The preparation can be high in sodium depending on seasoning choices, so moderation with salt or using fresh herbs can suit those aiming for a healthier recipe. Pairing Cosce di Pollo with steamed vegetables or whole grains completes a balanced and flavorful meal.
