  • Choose breast meat because it is the leanest part of the bird and has less than half the fat of, for example, thigh meat.
  • Roast, broil, poach, or grill chicken instead of frying it.
  • Broil with wine instead of butter.
  • Substitute low fat dairy products in recipes. Use yogurt or light sour cream instead of sour cream, and non-fat milk instead of regular milk. Replace oil or fat in marinades with fresh lemon or lime juice, or with wine or vinegar.
