The fried-chicken institution. Bone-in pieces vary by cut, so treat the published figures as averages. Chicken is protein-rich by nature — with the right sides, KFC can genuinely work as a high-protein meal out.

KFC publishes nutrition information for 36 menu items, and we list all of it here. It sits on the lighter side of its genre.

At the extremes, “骨なしケンタッキー” is the lightest meal at 191 kcal, while “LAS VEGAS style ダブルダウンフィレバーガー” tops the menu at 625 kcal. Even everyday options span 434 kcal.

Plenty of lighter choices, so you are unlikely to get stuck.

“LAS VEGAS style ダブルダウンフィレバーガー” carries the most protein at 44.7 g. Choices are limited, so it pays to decide before you order.

Some single items carry over half the Japanese daily salt target (7.5 g for adult men). Leaving the soup or skipping table condiments is the easiest way to bring that down.
