Nutritional values

Chicken breast fillet is one of the best suppliers of high-quality protein and contains low amounts of fat and calories. This is different with olive oil, but thanks to its unsaturated fatty acids, it is good for the heart, vessels and body cells.

In the case of chicken breast fillet from factory farming, it happens again and again that residues of medication are discovered in random samples. Salmonellae also cause the chicken meat to be talked about more often. If you want to avoid all this, it is best to choose chicken breast fillet from organic farming. By the way: a piece of wholemeal baguette or rye toast turns a low-calorie meal into an all-round balanced, satisfying meal.
