About Lean chicken thigh
Lean chicken thigh is a flavorful, protein-rich cut of poultry originating from cuisines worldwide, including Asian, Mediterranean, and American traditions. This dark meat portion delivers juiciness and tenderness due to its slightly higher fat content compared to chicken breast, yet it remains a wholesome option for balanced meals. A 3-ounce serving typically contains about 130-150 calories, 18-20 grams of protein, and 5 grams of fat, making it a satisfying source of essential amino acids. It also provides nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which contribute to energy production and immune health. Though lean chicken thighs are relatively low in saturated fat, care should be taken when preparing them with heavy sauces or frying, which can increase calorie and fat content. Skinless thighs are ideal for healthier options, whether grilled, baked, or stewed for a variety of savory dishes. Perfect for fitness enthusiasts and food lovers alike.
