About Kampong chicken

Kampong chicken, also known as "Ayam Kampung," is a native free-range chicken commonly found in Southeast Asian cuisines, particularly in Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore. Unlike commercially raised poultry, Kampong chickens are raised in more natural environments, which results in leaner meat with a firmer texture and richer flavor. This chicken is prized for its high protein content, essential vitamins like B12, iron, and lower fat levels compared to farmed varieties, making it a healthier alternative for those watching their calorie and fat intake. Its lower fat content, however, can make the meat slightly less tender. Kampong chicken is often prepared in soups, curries, or steamed dishes to enhance its natural flavors while preserving its nutritional value. While a nutritious protein source, portions should still be moderate, as preparation methods and added ingredients, like oils or sauces, can impact its overall healthiness.
