Grilled chicken leg with skin but no bone is a flavorful and tender protein choice enjoyed across various cuisines, from American barbecue to Mediterranean grills. This cut offers a balance of rich taste from the crispy, spiced exterior and succulent interior, making it a favorite among meat lovers. The skin imparts additional flavor and helps retain moisture during grilling but contributes to higher fat and calorie content compared to skinless options. Packed with high-quality protein, vitamins like B6 and B12, and minerals such as phosphorus and selenium, this dish supports muscle building and immune health. However, it’s important to moderate portions due to the saturated fat contained in the skin. Opting for light seasoning and pairing with nutrient-rich vegetables can enhance its healthiness while preserving its delicious, smoky essence. Perfect for a hearty meal, this dish strikes a satisfying balance between indulgence and nourishment.
