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

These figures describe roasted chicken drumsticks with the meat and skin included, weighed with the bone. The bone is included in the weight used to calculate the values, so these differ from figures for meat alone. Per 100g weighed with bone, the drumsticks provide 16g of protein, 5.7g of fat, including 1.5g of saturated fat, and 486 kJ of energy.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues and to help maintain muscles. The skin contributes to the fat content, so values for chicken eaten without the skin will differ. Added salt, sauces or seasonings can also change the salt and energy content of a meal. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
