Turkey Dark Meat with Skin, Cooked
Turkey dark meat with skin refers to cooked cuts from the thighs and drumsticks, characterized by richer flavor and higher fat content compared to white meat due to increased myoglobin and retained skin. The skin contributes additional saturated fats and calories during cooking but enhances moisture and texture in methods like roasting or braising. This protein-rich option provides essential minerals like iron and zinc, making it nutrient-dense but best consumed in moderation for those monitoring fat intake.
