About Raw chicken thighs
Raw chicken thighs are a versatile protein option commonly used in various cuisines worldwide, including American, Asian, Mediterranean, and Latin dishes. Known for their rich flavor and tender texture, chicken thighs contain higher fat content compared to leaner cuts like chicken breasts. They're an excellent source of protein, essential for muscle repair and growth, and provide important nutrients like zinc, selenium, and B-vitamins. While their moderate fat content can make them a satisfying choice, the fat is concentrated in the skin, which can contribute to higher calorie intake if consumed. Removing the skin before cooking reduces fat while still retaining their juicy quality. Chicken thighs are a popular choice for grilling, roasting, and braising due to their ability to stay moist and flavorful, even in longer cooking processes. Always cook chicken to a safe internal temperature of 165°F to ensure harmful bacteria are eliminated.
