How do you log in calories, etc. for a chicken thigh?

MikeGovette

I am frying bone-in skin-on chicken thighs in a tablespoon of oil. I find listings for a raw chicken thigh, but how do you account for the bone or the oil absorbed? Thanks in advance.

I count pretty much all of my cooking oil, unless I can see there is a lot still in the pan (there will also be cooking juice in the pan, so not everything left in the pan is cooking oil).

I would weigh the thigh raw and then weigh the bone afterwards and log the weight of the raw thigh minus the bone weight.

Look for a data entry for skin on, cooked chicken thigh. Weigh it before eating then weigh the bones after you're done and subtract the difference
