About KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN, Popcorn Chicken
Chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is the most popular meat in the world, an affordable, mild-tasting poultry that takes on almost any flavor and cuisine. It is sold in a range of cuts, from lean, low-fat breast meat to richer thighs, drumsticks, and wings, along with whole birds for roasting. Chicken is an excellent source of high-quality complete protein, supplying about 165 calories and 31 grams of protein per cooked 3.5-ounce serving of skinless breast, plus B vitamins, selenium, and phosphorus.
It is endlessly versatile, grilled, roasted, fried, baked, poached for soups, simmered into curries and stews, or shredded for tacos, salads, and sandwiches. Always cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit, keep it refrigerated and well sealed away from other foods, and use fresh chicken within a couple of days or freeze it for longer storage.
