Kcal of baked chicken breast. Chicken breast calories

If you study the list of products that nutritionists recommend that overweight people consume, you will notice that chicken breast is held in high esteem among them. How many calories does it have? Does the cooking method affect the energy value of this product? And will you really have to eat only boiled meat every day?

Chicken breast for losing weight

Chicken is a universal dietary product. Health nutritionists have long given this verdict to this meat. And it's not just about how many calories are in chicken breast.

This dish has excellent taste, has a minimum of fat and many useful elements. This will not only allow you to lose unnecessary pounds without experiencing a painful feeling of hunger, but also improve your body’s health.

The basis of chicken meat is protein. Its amount is 84% - it is a building material for cells. At the same time, white meat contains a minimum amount of fat - 15%, and carbohydrates in it no more than 1%. So this is an ideal choice for those who want to get slim. But how many calories will a chicken fillet dish give you?

Calorie content of chicken breasts and their benefits

Since the range of caloric content of fillet is low, and it is unlikely that lovers of tasty food will be stopped by the extra 23 kcal, they will probably be interested in knowing which dish will be healthier to prepare. For example, the calorie content of a chicken breast baked in the oven will be the same as grilled - the highest. But the first cooking method is more beneficial for the body, especially if the chicken is baked in the sleeve, that is, in its own juice. There is no point in removing the crust with this cooking method: the meat will be dry and tough. And, of course, boiled, stewed meat without skin is the most easily digestible and healthy. You can eat it not only while on a diet, but also during many illnesses, when you don’t feel like eating, but the body needs strength.

The calorie content table per 100 g allows you to quickly find the product you need and calculate your daily calorie intake. Choose the option for preparing dietary chicken breast.

How many calories are in baked chicken breast?

To prevent baked chicken breast from being dry, it is best to bake it in a special sauce.

Do you want to lose weight? Then these articles are for you

For the sauce we need: 1 tbsp. olive oil, 1 tbsp. soy sauce, your favorite seasonings and the secret ingredient - mustard. Mustard will make the breast much juicier.

Mix the ingredients for the sauce and coat the chicken breast with it. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes.

Place the marinated breast in foil and place in the oven for 10 - 15 minutes.

This baked chicken breast contains 148 kilocalories.

To summarize, we can say that the most dietary option for preparing chicken breast is boiling or preparing broth.

In these cases, the breast will contain the least amount of calories.

You can garnish the drink with herbs and cool it with ice cubes before drinking.

I love beets! Especially the pickled one :) I tried almost the same diet, very good. There is one serious drawback: with such a limited diet, weakness appears already on the 2nd day. This is not surprising, because the body does not receive the required amount of nutrients. I highly recommend that anyone who tries it take vitamins at the same time, preferably a balanced complex with polyprenols. At the same time, they even out metabolism and even give strength; they are a natural energy booster. Very useful for any diet.

I don’t like beets at all (I doubt I could lose weight with their help)

Chickens are cooked for 30 minutes, chicken and duck for up to an hour, turkey for 1.5-2 hours, goose for 1-2 hours.

Chicken breast can be called the most valuable part of a chicken carcass. It has a rich beneficial composition, due to which it is highly valued and recommended for use by all groups of people.

Although some adherents of a vegetarian diet claim that our bodies do not need meat and that the necessary protein can be obtained from plant foods, many studies suggest the opposite. Plant proteins have a different composition from animal protein. Therefore, plant foods are not a complete substitute for animal products. A good option for those who want to eat healthy and eat less fatty foods is chicken breast.

How many kcal are in chicken breast?

The calorie content of chicken breast is relatively low and is about 113 kcal per 100 g of raw product. If we take the daily caloric content recommended for diets as a basis, then a serving of chicken breast will be only 5.6% of the total calories. This calorie content, along with its beneficial composition, attracts the attention of many nutritionists. The view has changed significantly recently, and chicken breast has become a frequent guest on dietary tables. Its use in reasonable doses during diets helps to avoid protein starvation and saturate the body with important vitamins and minerals.

Most of the calories in chicken breast come from protein. Proteins provide about 84% of total calories.

Calorie content of boiled chicken breast

Due to its low calorie content, minimal fat content and healthy composition, chicken breast belongs to the group of dietary products. However, during heat treatment, the calorie content of chicken meat increases. In addition, to improve the taste, seasonings and other ingredients are added to white chicken meat, which significantly increase its calorie content.

If chicken meat is to be consumed as a dietary product, then the best method of preparation would be to boil it. Boiled breast goes well with vegetables and has a calorie content of about 137 units.

Calories in baked chicken breast

Baking chicken breast helps preserve all the nutrients it is rich in. It is best to bake meat in foil, then you will not need to add additional fats. If no seasonings are added to the dish, the calorie content of the breast will remain the same - 113 kcal. However, seasonings, salt, garlic, oil and other ingredients are often added during baking. Additional ingredients increase the calorie content of the finished product to 150 kcal.

Calories in smoked chicken breast

High quality smoked breast should not contain any ingredients other than salt. Adding seasonings may be a sign that the ingredients were not fresh. The use of liquid smoke creates a smoky taste, but does not allow obtaining a high-quality product.

High-quality smoked chicken breast is a conditionally dietary product, as it contains about 184 kcal per 100 g of product.

Calories in Braised Chicken Breast

Stewed chicken breast is made using water, vegetables and seasonings. Since the additional components are much lower than the calorie content of chicken meat, the result is a dish with a reduced calorie content. 100 g of stewed chicken breast contains about 93 kcal. No additional fats are added. Chicken breast pieces should be simmered in a small amount of water.

Chicken breast is a high protein animal food, low in fat and carbohydrates; It is because of these characteristics that brisket is widely used in weight loss diets and is also often used in dietary regimens typical of bodybuilding in both the mass phase (called the bulk phase) and the definition phase.

Chicken breast is an extremely versatile food. This is a very nutritious food that can be prepared using various methods: frying, boiling, steaming, etc. In addition, the skin part of the breast is a good product both for accompaniment of first courses and for baked goods.

Nutritional value of chicken breasts

Now let's look at the nutritional value of a product, 100 grams of which contain:

Thus, the total energy value per 100 grams is 100.0 kcal, including 93% protein and 7% lipids (1/3 saturated and 2/3 unsaturated, about 1/3 monounsaturated and 1/3 polyunsaturated).

Healthy cooking methods

The cooking method can add hundreds of calories to the final amount of fat and calories in your meat. Baking or boiling are generally the healthiest and lowest calorie cooking methods.

The amount of kcal depends on the cooking method any type of meat. It is believed that most of the calories come from fried fillets. Additionally, adding seasonings such as

barbecue sauce;
breading;
mayonnaise;
honey or dipping in syrups also increases calorie and fat intake.

In this form, the dish turns out juicy and aromatic, but harmful to health.

Therefore, baked or boiled product is, as a rule, the healthiest type of meat with the lowest calorie content.

How many calories are in fried chicken breast?

Fried brisket gives us 145 kilocalories with a high protein content of at least 22 grams, with 7 grams of fat and more than one gram of carbohydrates.

The value of the breast grilled barely changes, especially if spray oil is used. Calories and fat increase slightly due to the presence of oil in the pan. The approximate total is 151 calories, with 2 grams of fat and 22 grams of protein, the same as the fried or baked version. As for minerals and vitamins, they do not suffer from any noticeable changes.

Boiled briskets and their calorie content:

The most useful product with the least calories can be obtained in boiled form. Since during the boiling process, fats are absorbed into the broth. Therefore, when cooking, it is best to drain the first two broths and use the third one, this will reduce the calorie content of the meat.

A breast prepared in this way will contain only 109 kcal per 100 g. Therefore, this option is regularly used in diets.

Chicken breast calories

Depending on the method of heat treatment, the use of seasonings and the characteristics of the poultry carcass, the calorie content of the breasts differs. Let's look at the average indicators.

Fried

Whether purchased or raised at home, the breast is initially on the bone and covered with skin. Many people love the taste of the latter, especially when the meat is grilled and fried in vegetable oil and a fragrant and crispy “crust” is formed. But in addition to its pleasant taste, chicken skin is distinguished by its calorie content and the presence of not the most beneficial elements in its composition, so many nutritionists do not recommend it for consumption.

On average, fried chicken breast has almost 150 calories per 100 grams of cooked weight.

Boiled

Boiled chicken skin is not as dangerous as fried chicken skin, but it does affect the calorie content of the product. Thus, pure chicken meat cooked at normal times until soft and fibers disintegrate has an energy value of 95-100 calories per 100 grams of product.

The same meat, covered with skin, will carry 130 calories in every hundred-gram piece.

With steamed vegetables

Chicken breast with steamed vegetables is the most popular healthy and low-calorie lunch or dinner option for any age. This is a very good combination, because the fiber from plant foods helps proteins to be better absorbed.

The calorie content of the dish will be determined by the selected vegetables and their ratio to meat. If you take green vegetables such as asparagus, broccoli, zucchini and zucchini and they make up half the serving, then in every 100 grams of this mixture there will be approximately 96-100 calories.

Baked in the oven

Breast baked in the oven is a great alternative to the usual legs and sausages. The dish is easy to prepare and has a pleasant taste. This type of breast is considered a figure-safe product. Its calorie content is approximately 150 calories with moderate use of seasonings.

Baked with cheese

The energy value of such a tasty and at the same time dietary dish as chicken breast baked with cheese depends on what type of cheese is chosen. The higher the percentage of fat content, the higher the calorie content of the product.

Low-fat cheese or similar cheeses - 100 grams of breast underneath - up to 150 calories;
medium-fat cheese, including soft cheeses such as mozzarella and Adyghe - up to 170 calories;
hard fatty cheese: Dutch, Russian, Parmesan and others - about 190-200 calories.

On average, per 100 grams of raw meat, take up to 10 grams of hard cheese.

Need to know. It's no secret that the mass of a raw product differs from the finished one. This can be confusing when counting calories. Meat is characterized by greater weight and volume in its raw form. We served these ready-made dishes; you can cut pieces from them and adjust the portion sizes in accordance with the KBJU.
