"... tastes like chicken."
Chicken. It is the most commonly bred and eaten poultry in the
world. At every supermarket there are numerous brands available. I buy Murray’s to cook in my kitchen, and a
whole chicken typically costs $3/lb. at my local grocery store. A 3 lb. chicken
can feed 3 to 4 people as a main course and be easily divided at home, before
or after cooking, for multiple meals throughout the week.
Butchering a whole chicken consists of removing backbone, splitting
the bird in half, then removing the wings and legs, and finally separating the
leg from the thigh. This tutorial from Mark Bittman outlines the process your local butcher follows to prepare the pre-packaged
chicken you purchase in stores or the process you can follow to butcher a whole
chicken at home.
Chicken is a fairly lean
animal food, meaning it has a lower fat and higher protein ratio than
other meats. That makes it popular for athletes, people looking for
weight loss, and people in general on a healthy eating plan.1 Next time you are looking for a protein packed meal that is still healthy, look to the chicken as most thing taste like it anyway!
