About Quarter chicken leg
A Quarter Chicken Leg consists of the drumstick and thigh portion of the chicken, often prepared with the skin on. It is a staple in various cuisines, including American, Caribbean, Mediterranean, and Asian, where it's commonly roasted, grilled, or slow-cooked with a range of spices and marinades. Rich in protein, it supports muscle growth and repair, while also providing essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamin B6. However, its nutritional profile depends on preparation. Skin-on versions contain higher fat content, particularly saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation. Removing the skin reduces fat and calorie levels, making it a leaner option. Paired with healthy sides like steamed vegetables or whole grains, a Quarter Chicken Leg can be part of a balanced diet.
