A small chicken wing is a popular poultry cut, often enjoyed as a snack, appetizer, or part of a meal. Originating from American cuisine, particularly associated with the city of Buffalo, it's commonly seasoned or marinated, then baked, fried, or grilled. The wing consists of skin, connective tissue, and tender muscle, offering a flavorful combination of crispy exterior and juicy meat. Nutritionally, a small chicken wing provides protein, essential for muscle repair and growth, alongside small amounts of iron and selenium. However, its health profile depends on preparation; frying and heavy sauces can increase calorie, fat, and sodium content, while baking or grilling with lighter seasonings are healthier alternatives. The skin contributes to saturated fat, so removing it can make the wing leaner. Despite its small size, chicken wings pack big flavor, making them a versatile item for many dishes across different cuisines.
