KFC Chicken Breast: Price, Calories, Nutrition & Allergens (2026)
White-meat breast guide — 390 calories per Original Recipe® piece, $4.49 typical price, Kentucky Grilled® at 0g carbs on the nutrition row (allergen PDF still lists wheat & soy), 3 pc box combo estimator, and official allergen matrix. Independent — not KFC or Yum! Brands.
Quick answer
One Original Recipe® chicken breast is 390 calories, 39g protein, and $4.49 in our 2026 Edition menu file. Allergens on KFC’s U.S. PDF: Egg, Wheat, Milk. Kentucky Grilled® is 210 cal with 0g carbs on the nutrition row (wheat/gluten and soy on PDF). A 3-Piece Chicken Box (OR rows assumed — see note below) is about 800 cal chicken-only before sides (component sum, not an official KFC label).
What this guide covers (and what it does not)
- À la carte bone-in breasts — Original Recipe®, Extra Crispy™, Kentucky Grilled®, and Spicy Crispy per-piece prices and nutrition rows.
- Not chicken sandwiches — Classic and Spicy sandwiches are crispy fillets on brioche (separate nutrition rows), not bone-in à la carte breasts. See sandwiches on the menu.
- 2-Piece Drum & Thigh Combo ($8.49) — menu text is drumstick + thigh only, no breast. For a combo that lists breast among the cuts, use the $10.49 3-Piece Chicken Box hub (OR nutrition assumption explained there) or the 2 pc hub for dark-meat combo math.
- Kentucky Grilled® breast shows 0g carbs on the nutrition label; the allergen PDF still lists wheat/gluten and soy — do not treat as gluten-free from macros alone.
We sum Original Recipe® breast, drumstick, and thigh nutrition rows for this estimate because the combo is filed under Original Recipe® chicken in our menu data (nutrition link: OR breast). KFC’s combo description only lists cuts (breast, drumstick, thigh), not recipe style — your store may differ.

Sources & limitations
Nutrition: Per-piece macros for all four breast recipes come from KFC U.S. nutrition documentation in our JSON file (last updated 2026-01-20). Breast rows show “allergens: Not provided” there — use the PDF matrix below. Kentucky Grilled® shows 0g carbs on the nutrition row while the allergen PDF lists wheat and soy; do not infer gluten-free status from carbs alone. Multi-piece totals multiply per-piece rows. The 3-Piece Chicken Box tool sums Original Recipe® breast, drum, and thigh because that combo is filed under Original Recipe® in our menu data — KFC’s combo blurb names cuts only, not recipe style. Those sums are not official KFC meal labels.
