The table below shows the number of calories in chicken prepared using different cooking methods. The calorie count is calculated for an average portion* about 150 grams ( 5 ounces ).
Chicken breast is one of the leanest parts of the chicken, however in the table the leg shows less calories per portion but that's because the bone was included at weighing. The bone may take up one-third of the weight per portion resulting in only 100 grams of edible meat.
The darker meat from chicken is slightly higher in calories however this makes it iron rich. The skin is high in calories and should be removed before cooking to lower the calorie content.
