About One pound chicken breast
A one-pound chicken breast is a versatile and protein-rich option popular in cuisines worldwide, especially in North American and Mediterranean dishes. Typically skinless, it contains approximately 110-120 grams of protein and is low in fat, with around 5-7 grams depending on preparation. It’s naturally free of carbohydrates, making it a favorite for low-carb diets like keto or paleo. Rich in essential nutrients like B vitamins, including B6 and niacin, chicken breast supports energy production and overall health. Its mild flavor makes it a great base for marinades and spices, adapting easily to diverse cooking methods from grilling to baking. However, if prepared with excessive oil, butter, or breading, its calorie and fat content can increase significantly. Choosing lean preparation methods like steaming or roasting ensures it remains a healthy choice for meal planning. Both satisfying and nutrient-dense, chicken breast is a staple for balanced eating.
