Lean Ground Chicken

Lean Ground Chicken is coarsely chopped chicken breast or other lean chicken meat, commonly used in burgers, meatballs, tacos and many Asian and Western dishes as a versatile, milder alternative to ground red meat. It is often chosen for its lean texture and neutral flavor that easily takes on seasonings and herbs. As a protein-forward ingredient, 100 g of Lean Ground Chicken provides about 17.4g of protein, making it a good choice when you want a high-protein, low-carbohydrate base for meals. It is also relatively low in saturated fat compared with many red meats and supplies B vitamins like niacin and minerals such as selenium. Overall, this is a nutritious, satiating lean-protein option suitable for many diets; it delivers high-quality amino acids and modest micronutrients while fitting well into lower-fat meal plans.
