🍗 Health Benefits of Chicken
I like to cut make on red meat whenever I can, and one of the easiest ways to do that is by making ground chicken or turkey instead.
However, look for ground breast meat or packages that say 90% lean ground chicken or turkey, because typically packaged poultry is usually made from dark meat, and skin is added in.
Generally, the thighs and legs (dark meat) tend to be more flavorful, but higher in fat. This is why I try to look for ground breast meat instead. This chicken slider recipe is the perfect use of ground chicken breast.
🐔 Lean Ground Chicken Nutrition Facts
One 4-ounce serving of chicken breast usually contains about 160 calories and is a great source of lean protein. It is not only a great source of protein but rich in vitamins and minerals. Iron, B vitamins, potassium, phosphorus, zinc, magnesium, and selenium.
