The meat is relatively firm, and when consumed with the skin, it has a higher fat content. It is also the part of the whole chicken with the highest iron content. Chicken drumstick is tender and flavorful, and due to its mild taste, it can be used in various dishes. It is considered one of the meats with a high protein content and low fat content, making it a good choice for those looking for a high-protein food. It contains a significant amount of potassium sulfur amino acids, which helps to compensate for deficiencies found in beef and pork. Additionally, chicken meat has a higher vitamin A content compared to other meats, although it may be lower than that of vegetables or liver. Nevertheless, when compared to beef and pork, chicken meat still contains a relatively higher amount of vitamin A.
