Whenever I go to fresh market, I will always request the skin to be removed. No doubt, skin makes the chicken taste better. Removing the skin is to just to help me to reduce the temptation to eat them. If you are concern about your cholesterol intake, take a look at the difference between chicken parts with and without skin.
Cholesterol content in Kampung Chicken:
Drumstick (Weight: 91g)
with skin: 64mg without skin: 39mg
Thigh ( Weight: 210g)
with skin:108mg without skin:30mg
Backbone (Weight: 125g)
with skin:25mg without skin:8mg
Wings (Weight: 127g)
with skin:85mg
Cholesterol content in ordinary Chicken:
Thigh (Weight:175g)
with skin:101mg
Tail portion (Weight:16g)
1 whole:25mg
Summary:
You can easily reduce your cholesterol intake as much as 50-75% just by removing the skin. Easy, isn't it?
Being Happy!
