Duck is a waterfowl poultry with dark, rich meat and a thick layer of fat beneath the skin. It is roasted, braised, grilled, or confit, and is common in both Western and Chinese cooking.
Nutritionally, duck is higher in fat than chicken, which makes it more calorie-dense. Per 100 g it provides about 240 kcal, 15.5 g of protein, 19.7 g of fat, and 0.2 g of carbohydrates. This reference reflects duck meat with skin.
Removing the skin reduces the fat and calorie content significantly. For accurate tracking, weigh duck with or without skin as consumed and account for the cooking method, and use the serving sizes below.
