About Half chicken breast

Half chicken breast is a lean, versatile cut of poultry, often boneless and skinless, typically weighing around 3 to 4 ounces. It’s commonly featured in cuisines worldwide, from classic American baked dishes to Mediterranean grilled recipes and Asian stir-fry meals. Packed with protein, it’s an excellent option for muscle building and post-workout recovery, providing about 25-30 grams of protein per serving. It is naturally low in fat, especially when skinless, but still supplies essential nutrients like niacin, vitamin B6, and phosphorus, which support energy production and bone health. However, preparation matters—frying or adding cream-based sauces can increase fat and calorie content significantly. Opting for grilling, steaming, or baking keeps it a heart-healthy option. Its mild flavor pairs well with diverse seasonings, making it a staple for balanced, nutrient-rich meals.
