Guys would you consider grilled Chicken wings with NO SKIN on them a good source of protein?

Obviously lean chicken breast or turkey breast is the better choice and I do eat breast for the majority of the time!

On occasion I do like to treat myself to some hot and spicey grilled wings mmm especially when bored of chicken breast!

Will I gain fat from eating grilled wings??

The skin is fine
Naa, the skin is not so fine.
Sometime after my cycling and Calisthenic training, I throw a tray of a nice spicy chicken wings in the oven and eat them with nothing else , Good protein but yea, too much fat with skin on .( without the skin it's much better)

Nutrition for 1 medium size wing:

Calories 81 (25 without skin)
Total fat 5.4 g (1.1g without skin )
Saturated fat 1.5 g ( 0.3g without skin)

protiain 7.4g. (3.62g without skin)

Hey thanks man, fantastic bit of info there.. I really enjoy grilled wings with salad and cottage cheese.. But have been a little worried about fat content..

Without the skin, seems like I can eat these guilt free..

You're overthinking broski. Treating yourself once and a while is fine. I do thighs when I wanna cheat it up. I eat the skin too cause yolo.
