Chicken is consistently one of MyFitnessPal’s top-logged foods, and for good reason. The lean protein is low in saturated fat, cholesterol and calories and lends itself to a variety of dishes such as tacos, soups and more. In 2019, our most popular chicken recipes included high-fiber enchiladas, chicken banh mi sandwiches and a healthier version of fried rice. Plus, they all clocked in with at least 24 grams of protein per serving.
