Healthy Hint:
Cooking chicken with the skin on adds to the flavor, not the fat. Research has found that the fat does not transfer to the meat during cooking. So go ahead and leave the skin on, it helps keep the juices in, creates a moister, more tender meat and boosts the flavor. If you’re watching your calories, cholesterol and fat, remove the skin after cooking and discard it.
