Nutritional values
One serving provides 2 1/2 times the daily requirement of niacin. The vitamin is needed constantly and throughout the body to build up coenzymes that keep the metabolism going. It also regenerates the skin and regulates its moisture.
You want to save a lot of fat calories? Then remove the skin and visible fatty tissue before marinating. If you don't feel like cutting a chicken in half, just use legs; you'll have less work and need less time.
