What it is

Organic chicken fat is a type of fat obtained from chickens raised according to organic standards. It is rendered, meaning the fat is separated from other tissues through heating. This process yields a flavorful fat that is solid at room temperature.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add organic chicken fat to foods to enhance flavor and provide a rich texture. It is often used in soups, broths, and savory dishes to contribute a characteristic chicken taste. It can also be used as a cooking fat.

Health notes

Organic chicken fat is considered a food ingredient, not a food additive, by the FDA. As a fat, it provides calories and contains both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. JECFA and EFSA typically evaluate food additives, not primary food ingredients like chicken fat.
