Our estimates assume the use of fresh chicken with only 3% sodium per serving (instead of chicken that has been infused with a high-sodium broth) and one of our low-sodium balsamic vinaigrette dressing recipes.
Note that sodium percentages depend on which daily reference you use. The estimated 90 mg of sodium per serving implies that one serving of this recipe provides:
– 4% of the U.S. FDA daily reference value for sodium for a 2,000-calorie diet that includes 2,400 mg sodium, or
– 6% of the American Heart Association recommendation of 1,500 mg sodium per day, or
– 9% of the Ménière’s diet recommendation of 1,000 mg sodium per day.
