8. Chicken Breast
The boneless and skinless varieties contain the most protein, at 24 g for every 3 ounces. Compared to other cuts, these two will give you the greatest benefit if you are looking for muscle-building food. The breast is also the healthiest part of the chicken, aside from providing protein.
9. Peanut Butter
Peanut butter contains 8 g of protein in 2 tablespoons. Low-fat varieties of peanut butter are not always good. What these low-fat versions do is take out the healthy fat and substitute them with sugar that is worse for the body. Other nut butters have more protein content such as almond butter.
