For many, the attractiveness of turkey in place of other meats is its lower fat content and mild flavor — which makes it adaptable to a variety of seasonings and extends its compatibility with traditional and unusual ingredients alike.
Ounce for ounce, turkey compares favorably with beef and pork in terms of the amount of fat it contains, although dark meat tends to be slightly higher in fat than white.
A 3-ounce serving of cooked, skinless turkey breast has at least half the calories of lean beef or pork — about 129 calories — and a fraction of the total fat. The same portion of beef or pork, depending upon the cut, can offer upwards of 12 grams of fat, while the turkey breast has only 2.6 grams total fat.
