Dark Meat vs. White Meat - Which meat to have at KFC
I love KFC. Everyone does. Especially in Pittsburgh, where the winter is cold and humid, it’s always good to get some extra calories. However, I noticed that when I order chicken at KFC, they always ask if I want dark meat or white meat. Dark meat is 1/2 dollars cheaper than white. So I always choose dark to save some money. However, I am always wondering does dark mean “bad quality” or something? I googled it and decided to write a blog about this.
I referred to Peter James’ answer on Quora. You can also find a nutrition chart on this page.
Basically, legs and thighs are dark meat, and breast is white meat.
I highly recommend dark meat over white. KFC made it seem that dark meat is inferior. In fact, although it has a little bit more calories and fat, it is much more tasty than white. Chicken breast is the most flavorless, dry part on a chicken. On the contrary, legs and thighs are tender, juicy, and flavorful. Get salad not KFC if you want to eat healthy. If you go to KFC, I assume that you don’t care much about the extra calories you get from thighs.
中文版就是:
我们都是中国人,我们知道鸡腿肉比鸡胸肉不知道高到哪里去了,而且还便宜,以后请放心大胆的点dark meat!
Chicken Curry in 30 minutes
I happened to walk in an Indian market on Craig street. I wanted to try something exotic, and bought this curry powder: .
Ingredients:
- Vegetables(potato, onion)
- Chicken thigh(Breast is okay but thigh is more moist and flavorful. Use breast if you do not like skin)
- Coconut milk(This makes the curry so different than the ones made with water)
Steps:
- Pan-sear the thigh. This burns the fat and makes the skin crispy.
- Cut thigh and vegetables into cubes. Stir-fry them with curry powder until they smell fragrant and potatoes turn gold.
- Add lots of coconut milk. Do not add water. Let it boil.
- Serve it with nice rice. I like to sprinkle some somoked paprika on top of it to make it more tasty.
- Enjoy!
I know it is not the authentic way to cook Indian food, but I think it is fast and tasty. You can try this. Try any combination of meat and vegetables. As long as there is the authentic curry powder and coconut milk, it will be thick, spicy, and tasty.
