Using this food reference
The protein and fat figures describe roasted thigh meat without skin, not a skin-on piece. Weigh edible cooked meat after removing the bone before using the listed serving comparison.
A thigh is not the same reference as the existing roasted chicken-breast page. Compare the same cooked gram weight on both pages; count a sauce or added cooking oil separately.
Match the food before using the numbers
The selected USDA description is Chicken, broilers or fryers, thigh, meat only, cooked, roasted. Preparation, water loss, added oil, salt, edible skin, product formulation, and measured portion can change the nutrition of the food you actually eat.
