Boneless skinless chicken thighs去骨去皮鸡腿肉Thighs stay juicy and forgiving; breasts are leanest. Look for pink, firm meat with no sour smell.鸡腿肉嫩不易柴,鸡胸最低脂。选粉色、紧实、无异味的。

Make it a balanced meal营养搭配建议
Balanced plate: ½ vegetables or salad, ¼ this dish, ¼ rice, bread or tortillas.均衡一盘:½蔬菜或沙拉、¼这道菜、¼米饭、面包或玉米饼。
Why it works: aim for half the plate vegetables, a quarter protein, a quarter whole grains or starch — then let one rich dish be the star.搭配思路:半盘蔬菜、四分之一蛋白、四分之一主食;一桌里只让一道浓郁的菜当主角。
