The patella, aka the kneecap.
The chicken patella, also known as the kneecap, is a small, flat bone located in the knee joint of chickens. It serves to protect the knee joint and aids in the movement of the leg by providing leverage to the muscles that extend the leg. In culinary contexts, chicken patella is not commonly used or referenced, as it is typically not a notable part of the chicken for consumption.
