Baked chicken - has more protein?

[Revved]

I heard baking chicken increases protien as opposed to grilled.

Is that true? Don't understand how it would increase protien when its baked.

What are your thoughts on this ?

Maybe some of the grilled chicken slipped through the grill cracks into the charcoal and no one wanted to eat it. Otherwise, I have no idea.
Where did you hear this from?

Ovenz increases teh proteinz? I wonder how? Unless you have a magical oven with special protein increasing powers it sounds like a bunch of hooey to me.

grilled chicken would lose protein to charring and loose pieces, but in no way can baked chicken GAIN protein, LULZ

That just doesn't make sense.

It doesn't increase in protein amount.

HOWEVER, the percentage of protein by weight will probably increase due to fluid loss.

Hypothetical example:

Starting weight: 100 grams with 20 grams protein = 20% protein by weight.
End weight: 80 grams with 20 grams protein [unchanged] = 25% protein by weight.

Technical answer and deserved to be repped. Thanks!

Thanks for everyones response.

Just on that topic. do you typically calculate your protien requirements daily, as per normal after its cooked. example:

after its cooked, you would still count your calories based on raw values :

100 grams with 20 grams protein. is that correct?

Since it does not lose or gain protein [unless you char some off] - just moisture and maybe a little fat from the little it started with, if it starts as X grams and Y calories with Z grams of protein, it still has about Y calories and Z grams of protein even though it may weight more or less.

While the food would need to be considered, raw weight and using raw nutritional values will likely be more accurate but you can still use cooked weight and cooked nutritional values. Whatever you do, just be consistent.
