Calories by count

Chick-fil-A Grilled Nuggets are bite-sized pieces of marinated chicken breast, grilled rather than breaded, in an 8, 12, or 30 count. With no breading, they have more protein for their calories than any other entrée on Chick-fil-A's US menu, as of the date on the card. A 12 count has 200 calories. These numbers are for the nuggets alone, and each dipping sauce adds its own. Chick-fil-A lists every ingredient and allergen on its Grilled Nuggets page.
