Chicken leg quarter is a cut of poultry containing thigh and drumstick. These figures describe raw meat and skin, weighed with the bone included, rather than boneless meat alone. It mainly provides protein and fat. Per 100g, it supplies 13g of protein, 9.2g of fat, including 2.5g of saturated fat, and 555 kJ of energy.
Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. The skin contributes to the fat content, which is worth noting when considering energy or saturated fat intake. Cooking changes the weight and nutrient concentration, so these raw values should not be used directly for cooked chicken. Chicken needs thorough cooking before eating. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
