Chicken breast in crumbs, chilled, fried

This is chicken breast coated in crumbs, supplied chilled and then fried. It provides protein, fat and carbohydrate. Per 100g, it contains 18g of protein, 13g of fat and 15g of carbohydrate, with 1.1g of salt. These figures describe the prepared, fried product rather than plain chicken breast.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues, including muscles. The crumb coating contributes carbohydrate, while frying adds fat and increases the energy content. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, and the fat and energy content may also be relevant when comparing products or cooking methods.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (4 samples). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: Meat Products and Dishes Supplement, 1996.
