No they aren’t. Mostly because legumes are incomplete proteins, while chicken is a complete protein, and that animal protein is more easily digestible and absorbed than plant based protein.
Claiming legumes is the best protein is one of those lies that vegans claim. There’s plenty of real reasons to go animal free, but all the baseless crap that vegans claim isn’t doing them any favors.
Here’s a fact, though. All the fields with beans and lettuce and all the veggies have thousands of little mice and birds and rabbits that live in them. Thousands are killed from the farm equipment.
Beans and rice together make a complete protein. And it’s plenty easy to digest them if you try - one good way to make it easy is to cook your rice and beans prior to eating them.

I don’t mean physically eating them or shitting them out. Humans absorb and use animal based protein more than plant based protein.
