Quail

Quail is a small game bird used in many cuisines — often roasted, grilled or braised whole — prized for its tender, flavorful meat and quick cooking time. It’s commonly found in European and Asian dishes as an alternative to larger poultry. Nutritionally, Quail is a lean source of animal protein, providing about 21g of protein per 100 g, with relatively low fat compared with darker poultry cuts; it also contributes important nutrients such as vitamin B12 and selenium. From a health perspective, quail provides high-quality, satiating protein and useful micronutrients for blood and thyroid function, making it a nutritionally dense choice among meats when consumed without added fatty sauces or excessive salt.
