A typical cooked, skinless chicken thigh has about 25–27 grams of protein.

Quick Scoop

  • Per 100 g cooked, skinless chicken thigh: about 25–26 g protein.
  • One medium cooked, skinless thigh (around 110 g): about 27 g protein.
  • Raw chicken thigh is less concentrated: about 18–19 g protein per 100 g before cooking, because of higher water content.

Things that change the exact number

  • Size of the thigh (small vs large). A larger thigh can range roughly 18–31 g protein each.
  • Raw vs cooked (cooked has more protein per 100 g due to water loss, not because protein is added).
  • Skin-on vs skinless (protein similar, but skin mostly adds fat and calories).

If you just want a working estimate for tracking: assume about 25 g protein per 100 g cooked, skinless chicken thigh or ~27 g per medium thigh.
