About Roast Duck
Fairly high in protein, with more fat than chicken breast.
Health Benefits of Roast Duck
More unsaturated fats
Duck breast: 18.3g protein, 7.5g fat per 100g; its fat is mainly unsaturated (high in monounsaturated), a better profile than lard or beef tallow. Skin is fat-heavy; removing it cuts calories greatly.
Rich in iron and B vitamins
As red meat, duck has more myoglobin than chicken, so higher iron. It is also rich in riboflavin (B2) and niacin (B3) for energy metabolism and skin/mucosa health.
Common in Chinese cooking
Used roasted, braised or slow-cooked (Peking duck, old-duck soup). Roasting drains some skin fat, but skin stays fatty; trim where sensible and pair with vegetables or mushrooms.
