Protein at Chick-fil-A

Chick-fil-A hides one of the best protein-per-calorie menus in fast food behind the breading. Grilled Nuggets are the standout — 25g of protein in 130 calories for an 8-count, 38g in 200 for a 12-count — while the classic Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich lands at 29g and the Cool Wrap tops the everyday menu at 43g. Grilled swaps are almost always the protein win: the Grilled Filet carries 21g in 110 calories against the breaded filet’s 24g in 250.
