Chicken is meat of domesticated wild hens. About 90% of chickens are broilers, which are bred for food and raised for 50 days. Lately, locally produced chickens or branded chickens are becoming popular. Given the lower levels of fat, they are also popular as a diet food. Chicken is rich in inosinate and good for all kinds of cooking such as fried, simmered, and steamed dishes. There are many chicken recipes using umami synergy that combine vegetables and seasonings.

Levels of naturally occurring inosinate(mg/100g):150~230
Levels of naturally occurring glutamate(mg/100g):20~50
