Skinless chicken thigh — fattier than breast, more flavorful, similar protein density.

Higher fat than breast (11g vs 3.6g) but more forgiving on a grill. Bulks and maintenance-friendly; less ideal for tight cuts.

Best for

  • higher-fat protein meals — 26g protein with 11g fat / 100g
  • people who under-eat fat and bounce off super-lean diets

Watch out

  • double-counting oil or butter you already logged separately
  • assuming “protein” means low calorie — fat drives energy density here

How to log it

Log the cut/state you actually have (skin-on, marbled, etc.). 1 thigh boneless (~95g) is the practical unit in the app.

Where it fits the day

Works when the rest of the day is lighter on oils and nuts. Watch the weekly fat budget, not just the meal selfie.

Cooked, grilled, fried & breaded

The numbers above are for plain chicken thigh. Cooking method and restaurant prep change the estimate — typical kcal per 100g:

Method
Typical kcal / 100g
Why it moves
Grilled / baked (skinless)
~209
Matches the page numbers
Pan-fried with oil
~230–270
Extra oil on an already fattier cut
Skin-on roasted
~230–260
Skin is mostly fat
Breaded & fried
~280–330
Breading + oil

These are typical ranges, not lab measurements. Restaurant recipes, oils, and sauces vary — treat them as logging estimates and edit if your plate looks heavier.
