About Chicken, skin (drumsticks and thighs), with added solution, cooked, braised
This poultry product consists of chicken drumsticks and thighs, including the skin, that have been cooked through braising. A solution has been added, likely to enhance moisture and flavor. Braising involves searing the chicken and then simmering it in liquid, resulting in tender and flavorful meat. It's a versatile component of many cuisines, frequently served as a main course alongside vegetables, rice, or potatoes.
The braising process, while adding flavor, also contributes to a higher fat content, with 38.94g per 100g serving. Protein content is 12.26g per 100g, making it a reasonable source of this macronutrient, though lower compared to leaner chicken preparations. The carbohydrate content is minimal at 1.00g and fiber is nonexistent. Due to the high fat and calorie count (403.00 calories per 100g), portion control is important, particularly for weight management. While the protein supports muscle building, the fat content may require adjustments within a balanced diet. To create a healthier meal, consider removing the skin after cooking and pairing it with fiber-rich vegetables.
