8. Oysters

Seafood tends to be high in protein, with some varieties having more superior nutrition than others. Some seafood even provides as much per ounce as chicken and lean beef. Cooking oysters increases the bioavailability of protein; 100 grams of cooked Pacific oysters delivers about 19 grams of protein. This seafood is also rich in zinc, vitamin D, potassium, iron, and niacin.
