What makes lamb a healthy protein choice?

Lamb is lean and a good source of protein at 21 grams per serving.  Most cuts meet the definition of “lean” and lamb contains several B vitamins, iron and magnesium. Lamb’s internal safe temperature should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit. As with other red meats, ground lamb should be cooked to 160 degrees for optimum safety.  A three-ounce serving of lamb has 175 calories and eight grams of total fat.
