Top Non Vegetarian Protein Rich Indian Foods

Hey, All The Non-Vegetarians out there! This one's for you!

Let Us Quickly Have A Look At The Top Non-Vegetarian Protein Rich Indian Foods :

• Eggs: One of the top quality source of protein for non-vegetarians! One medium sized egg has around 6g of protein in it. But you have to look out as the yolk also has around 5g of fat in it. Though, the fat is unsaturated and is healthy. For someone on a keto diet, eggs are your best friend.
  

• Chicken: Most common source of protein among non-vegetarian Indians. 100 grams of skinless chicken has around 26g of protein. It also has around 10g of fat so one should be careful if controlling their calories. The best alternative for this is skinless chicken breast which has really low fat and high protein in it compared to the other parts of a chicken.
  

• Mackerel Fish: Most commonly known as surmai in India. It is another great source of protein. 100 grams of the fish contains around 26 grams of high-quality protein and less than 2 grams of fat.
  

• Pomfret Fish: The Pomfret fish has around 20-25 grams of protein per 100-gram fillet. It is very low in fat too. Another good source of protein for non-vegan Indians. It comes in a black and silver variety which is more or less the same.
  

• Basa Fish: Basa has recently entered the Indian market and is also a quick and low-calorie source of protein. It has 14g protein in a 100g fillet and less than 3g of fat. Definitely, a good choice when someone is on a cutting diet.
  

• Goat Meat (Mutton): It is a very lean source of protein. A 100-gram serving has around 25 grams of protein and less than 4 grams of fat. It is a good option for people who are always trying to balance out the high protein and high fats in any kind of meat.
  

• Turkey: It is a quite new source of meat in India. Tastes similar to chicken but has around 27 grams of protein per 100 gram serving and less than 1 gram of fat. Definitely, a high-quality lean protein source. The only drawback is, it is quite expensive. Almost around Rs 600 for a kilo compared to Rs 200 kg for chicken.
  

• Tuna: Usually you get it in tinned cans in India as it is another one of the imported fishes. A 100 gram serving of tuna has a whopping 30 gram of protein and less than 7 gram of fat. Sounds Good!
  

• Salmon: Commonly known as ravas in India. It has 20g of protein per 100g serving and around 13g fat.
  

• Cow Milk: A common source of protein for vegetarians as well as non-vegetarian Indians. One glass (250ml) has 8 gram of protein, 8 gram of fat and 12 gram of carbs. Good source of protein while bulking.
