what's healthier, chicken or dal?

chicken v dal, I can't decide which to order from the Indian truck for lunch 🙁

both would be served over brown rice, with no additional condiments on either except hot sauce.

the chicken is grilled, but parts unknown (eg: it's not just white meat/breast... I'm assuming it's cheap cuts)

Neither, as both are probably smothered to hell in grease, butter, and seasonings.

The core ingredient plays probably nothing compared to the rest of the stuff you'll eat it with.

Why worry we all have to go someday! 😉

The question really should be do you want to eat meat or not.

 

[nageov3t]

Neither

even if neither is "healthy," wouldn't one have to be healthier than the other? 😕

Chicken. Animal protein is good for you.

Out of those two, I'd go with Dal.

Of course Loki eats meat. 😀

To me, it really does depend on preparation. If it's grilled chicken over brown rice as described, I would think that is healthier than the Dal which looks a bit heavy on the carbs. Are you working out?

I tend to avoid chicken from ethnic food places.

If it's fully cooked pieces not on the bone, then you're fine.

Neither, had a bad experience with Indian food. Never again.

I split the difference and got 25% dal, 25% spinach, and 50% some other veggies I don't know over rice.
