Cuisse de Poulet, meaning "chicken thigh" in French, is a versatile and flavorful protein widely featured in French cuisine. This cut comes from the leg of the chicken and is known for its tender, juicy meat and rich flavor, often enhanced through roasting, braising, or grilling techniques. It is nutrient-dense, providing high-quality protein essential for muscle repair and growth, along with vitamins like B6 and niacin, which support energy metabolism. Chicken thighs also contain minerals such as selenium and phosphorus, beneficial for bone health and immune support. While the dark meat has slightly more fat than chicken breast, it delivers a satisfying depth of flavor. Opting for skinless thighs can lower calorie and fat content for a healthier choice. Often paired with herbs, vegetables, or wine-based sauces, Cuisse de Poulet exemplifies balanced, hearty eating in French culinary traditions.
