Chicken Drumstick
Good nutritional profile
Chicken drumstick with skin, values for the raw meat and skin without the bone.
The lower part of the chicken leg, roasted, grilled, fried or braised with the skin on. A 150 g portion of raw meat and skin (about two drumsticks) gives about 240 kcal, 27 g of protein and 14 g of fat, and is high in niacin, selenium and vitamin B6, with some zinc. Weigh the meat without the bone, or allow about 30% of a raw drumstick's weight for bone; removing the skin cuts the fat by more than half.
