Half of chicken refers to a single, split serving of a whole chicken, typically including both white meat (breast and wing) and dark meat (thigh and drumstick). It is a versatile ingredient across global cuisines, with origins in roasted, grilled, and baked dishes spanning American barbecue, Middle Eastern shawarma, and French rotisserie traditions. High in protein and essential vitamins like B6 and B12, chicken supports muscle growth and energy production. Its skin, however, contains higher fat content, and preparation methods like frying can increase calorie and sodium levels. Opting for skinless chicken and healthier cooking techniques like baking or grilling can enhance its nutritional benefits. A half of chicken is rich in selenium and phosphorus, supporting immune and bone health. When paired with nutrient-rich vegetables or grains, it becomes a well-rounded meal suitable for a balanced diet.
