About Raw chicken breast

Raw chicken breast is a versatile and widely used protein source in cuisines around the world, particularly in dishes originating from American, Asian, Mediterranean, and European cooking. It is a lean cut of poultry, low in fat and carbohydrates, making it ideal for those seeking high-quality protein to support muscle growth, weight management, or overall health. A 3-ounce serving provides approximately 26 grams of protein, along with important nutrients such as B vitamins, phosphorus, and selenium, which support energy production and immune function. While beneficial in moderation, it is essential to handle raw chicken properly to avoid bacterial contamination like salmonella. Cooking methods like grilling, baking, or poaching can maximize health benefits without adding unhealthy fats. Avoid high-sodium marinades or heavy breading, which diminish its nutritional profile. This ingredient’s neutrality makes it the perfect canvas for flavors from cultures across the globe.
