Is dark meat healthy?

POSTED BY: Dana Lilienthal | February 25, 2008 | 4:53 AM

J0182710 This is usually a big thing with weight loss. Eat the white-meat from poultry and never eat the skin. Well, some new news may make those who are fans of poultry's dark-meat happy. Joy Bauer, MS, RD, CDN, shares some information about why dark meat is dark and explains that dark meat only has only about 20 more calories per ounce than white meat.

With this new information you will be sure to enjoy Chicken Thighs with Squash, Yams and Dried Apricots. Made with boneless, skinless chicken thighs, and a variety of sweet foods, this Moroccan inspired dish will be one you will make again and again. A nutritional profile of this recipe is available. Remember to save this recipe to your Nutrition Data Pantry.
