Chick-fil-A is a beloved fast-food restaurant that is known for its juicy chicken sandwiches, fun waffle fries, and milkshakes. However, we all know that navigating any fast food chain’s menu can be challenging when you’re trying to lose weight.
While some of their menu items can be high in fat and calories, there are some creative ways to keep those calories to a minimum!

High-Protein, Low-Calorie Chick-fil-A Order
Hannah’s go-to order contains around 300-307 calories and a whopping “29 grams” of protein (29P / 15F / 14C / 307 calories).
She orders an eight-count grilled nugget and a side of kale crunch salad. Hannah throws the chicken nuggets into the kale salad along with some shredded cheese, and that’s it!
“It’s just a good little high-protein snack, super easy to eat in your car as well,” she says.
How this order is protein-packed
This order has a healthy nutritional profile thanks to the balanced ingredients. The grilled nuggets provide lean protein, kale will add fiber and essential nutrients, and some cheese gives it a slight healthy fat content. It’s also an easy-on-the-go option that is perfect for busy individuals with a weight loss goal.
Other fans agreed with her, noting that it's their favorite healthy order from the chain as well:
"That’s my go-to."
"Add Polynesian sauce, and it’s to die for."
