Chicken skin stays on during cooking says study
A National Broiler Council funded study reported in a New England Journal of Medicine letter found roasted chicken breast calorie and fat content are the same whether skin is removed before or after cooking. Dietitian Linda Dieleman notes the skin helps moisture and is hard to grill without it.

Health note warns on chicken fat and skin removal
Dieleman cautions that peeling skin may lead to higher fat intake through fatty marinades. USDA data show a skinless 3 ounce breast has 116 calories and 1.5 g fat, while with skin it is 140 calories and 3 g fat. Younger birds are leaner, and age increases fat deposition per Edward Naber. Buying from a butcher can indicate chicken age. Americans eat about 20 chickens per person annually per Bill Roenigk.
