Grilled chicken is a popular protein-rich dish made by cooking chicken over a grill or open flame, often seasoned with a variety of spices, marinades, or herbs. Originating from various culinary traditions worldwide, it can reflect flavors of American barbecue, Mediterranean spice blends, or Southeast Asian marinades. This method of preparation is revered for maintaining the chicken’s natural tenderness while imparting a smoky, flavorful char. As a lean source of protein, grilled chicken supports muscle development and satiety, and when prepared without excessive added fats or sugary sauces, it remains low in calories and saturated fat. It pairs well with nutrient-packed vegetables or whole grains, making it a versatile and healthy choice. However, over-charring or burning parts of the chicken may lead to the formation of harmful compounds, so proper grilling techniques are essential to preserve its health benefits.
