Poussin is a young chicken. These figures describe raw meat and skin together, rather than meat alone. It mainly provides protein and fat, with 19g of protein and 14g of fat per 100g. This includes 3.8g of saturated fat, while the energy content is 839 kJ per 100g. It also provides B vitamins and minerals, including phosphorus and selenium.
Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues, while phosphorus contributes to normal bones and teeth. The inclusion of skin is relevant when considering fat, saturated fat and energy intake, as removing it changes the nutritional composition. Raw poultry needs thorough cooking before eating. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
