Chicken, drumsticks, casseroled, meat and skin, weighed with bone

Chicken drumsticks are cuts from the lower part of the chicken’s leg. These figures describe casseroled drumsticks with the meat and skin included, weighed with the bone. Per 100g on this basis, they provide 15g of protein and 9.2g of fat, including 2.6g of saturated fat, with 587 kJ of energy. The bone is included in the weight used for these figures, rather than the weight referring only to the edible meat and skin.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. The fat and saturated fat content are relevant for people monitoring their energy or saturated fat intake. Added salt, sauces and other casserole ingredients can affect the nutritional content of the finished dish. Full figures are in the tables below.
