Calories in Fried Chicken, Nuggets and Wings

By NYUS Inc. · Published 28 October 2026

A piece of fried chicken, a nugget and a wing each have a piece weight printed on their SR Legacy record page. This guide gives twenty-seven such records from the SR Legacy table of USDA FoodData Central: ten fast food fried chicken records (breast, drumstick, thigh and wing, with and without skin and breading, boneless pieces, and skin and breading alone), ten home-fried records (batter and flour: breast, drumstick, leg, thigh, wing), two frozen nugget records, a frozen chicken patty, two breaded tender records, a family style tenders record and a family style chicken fingers record, with the weights printed on their record pages. IFCT 2017, the Indian Food Composition Tables from ICMR-NIN, has raw and plain broiler cuts but no fried chicken, nugget or tender row, so this page uses SR Legacy only. IFCT chicken cuts are in our chicken protein guide, other meats in our beef, pork, duck and turkey guide and ordering out in our ordering guide.

The short answer

By the SR Legacy records, 1 fast food fried chicken breast with skin and breading (203 g) is 466.9 kcal, 1 drumstick (75 g) 200.3 kcal, 1 thigh (136 g) 372.6 kcal, 1 wing (58 g) 179.8 kcal and 1 frozen nugget (20 g) 52.2 kcal. Our reading: the piece and the skin decide the number: the same fast food breast record lists 203 g with skin and 107 g with bone and skin removed, and the second is 246.1 kcal.

SR Legacy: per 100 g

Every figure below is exactly as the record page shows it. The record names are the dataset's own.

SR Legacy: per printed portion

Each figure is our arithmetic on exact weights: kcal per 100 g times the grams, divided by 100, with the exact product in the sums line and the result shown to 0.1 with half rounding up. Every weight below is printed on the SR Legacy record page; none is ours. The records also print 3 oz weights and yield labels per pound of ready-to-cook chicken, which are not shown. The skin-and-breading record (170755) and the batter-fried breast record (171475) print no usable household portion and appear per 100 g only.

The sums: 170718 307 × 160 / 100 = 491.2, so 491.2 kcal; 170718 307 × 96 / 100 = 294.72, so 294.7 kcal; 170718 307 × 64 / 100 = 196.48, so 196.5 kcal; 170718 307 × 320 / 100 = 982.4, so 982.4 kcal; 170756 230 × 203 / 100 = 466.9, so 466.9 kcal; 170756 230 × 142 / 100 = 326.6, so 326.6 kcal; 170756 230 × 107 / 100 = 246.1, so 246.1 kcal; 170757 267 × 75 / 100 = 200.25, so 200.3 kcal; 170757 267 × 40 / 100 = 106.8, so 106.8 kcal; 170757 267 × 56 / 100 = 149.52, so 149.5 kcal; 170359 274 × 66 / 100 = 180.84, so 180.8 kcal; 170359 274 × 84 / 100 = 230.16, so 230.2 kcal; 170359 274 × 136 / 100 = 372.64, so 372.6 kcal; 170360 310 × 37 / 100 = 114.7, so 114.7 kcal; 170360 310 × 58 / 100 = 179.8, so 179.8 kcal; 170360 310 × 20 / 100 = 62, so 62.0 kcal; 170356 153 × 142 / 100 = 217.26, so 217.3 kcal; 170356 153 × 107 / 100 = 163.71, so 163.7 kcal; 170357 172 × 56 / 100 = 96.32, so 96.3 kcal; 170357 172 × 40 / 100 = 68.8, so 68.8 kcal; 170358 178 × 84 / 100 = 149.52, so 149.5 kcal; 170358 178 × 66 / 100 = 117.48, so 117.5 kcal; 170754 215 × 37 / 100 = 79.55, so 79.6 kcal; 170754 215 × 20 / 100 = 43, so 43.0 kcal; 172374 268 × 72 / 100 = 192.96, so 193.0 kcal; 173615 273 × 158 / 100 = 431.34, so 431.3 kcal; 172386 277 × 86 / 100 = 238.22, so 238.2 kcal; 173628 324 × 49 / 100 = 158.76, so 158.8 kcal; 171476 222 × 98 / 100 = 217.56, so 217.6 kcal; 173611 245 × 49 / 100 = 120.05, so 120.1 kcal; 173616 254 × 112 / 100 = 284.48, so 284.5 kcal; 173624 262 × 62 / 100 = 162.44, so 162.4 kcal; 173629 321 × 32 / 100 = 102.72, so 102.7 kcal; 172112 261 × 20 / 100 = 52.2, so 52.2 kcal; 172112 261 × 82 / 100 = 214.02, so 214.0 kcal; 172111 268 × 87 / 100 = 233.16, so 233.2 kcal; 172111 268 × 18 / 100 = 48.24, so 48.2 kcal; 171513 287 × 60 / 100 = 172.2, so 172.2 kcal; 173346 240 × 21 / 100 = 50.4, so 50.4 kcal; 171514 252 × 15 / 100 = 37.8, so 37.8 kcal; 171514 252 × 62 / 100 = 156.24, so 156.2 kcal; 169837 307 × 114 / 100 = 349.98, so 350.0 kcal; 169837 307 × 37 / 100 = 113.59, so 113.6 kcal; 169847 302 × 201 / 100 = 607.02, so 607.0 kcal.

Why these are reference rows, not your order

• Names are the records'. No record name or portion label shown here carries a company name. The records are USDA's fast food, home-fried, frozen and family style rows; we do not say that a piece from an Indian outlet or a home kitchen matches any of them.
• With skin or without, bone or no bone. The records print separate weights for with skin, without skin and bone and skin removed; each row says which. Do not use a with-skin row for a skinless piece.
• Batter and flour are different rows. The home-fried records are named batter or flour as USDA names them; we do not say which one a restaurant uses.
• Every portion here is printed. No piece weight on this page is ours: each is printed on its record page, and the only weight that is ours is the labelled 100 g example in the logging section.
• The records' own notes. The record pages mark the kcal energy of 25 of the 27 records "Calculated" and print a recipe-based source (known formulation) for the other 2 (170359, 170360); they are USDA values, not our measurements.

How to log it so the numbers hold

• Weigh it when you can. 100 g of fast food fried chicken breast with skin and breading (our example weight, not a dataset value) on SR Legacy 170756 is 230 × 100 / 100 = 230, so 230.0 kcal.
• Pick the piece and the skin the record names. Breast, drumstick, thigh and wing are different rows, and with skin, without skin and boneless are different weights.
• Sauces and sides are separate. Dips, fries and a drink are not in these rows; fries are in our pizza, burger and fries guide.
• Do not mix datasets inside one day. If you log fried chicken from SR Legacy, keep to that record for the same plate.

Where NYUS fits (our app)

We make NYUS, so read this as ours. NYUS is an AI fitness and nutrition coach in early access on Android, with no ads and no data selling. You log foods yourself by searching 8,900+ Indian and global foods or by barcode, and a weekly check-in adjusts your calories, macros and step goal once enough is logged. Barcode coverage of Indian packaged foods is not complete, so search by name when a scan finds nothing.

What this page leaves out

• A calorie target, and any claim about what fried chicken does to your weight or health: we have not looked up one for any person, so we give none. If you have a medical condition, ask your doctor or dietitian.
