Chick-fil-A Nuggets

Chick-fil-A Nuggets are bite-sized pieces of boneless chicken breast, hand-breaded and pressure-cooked in 100% refined peanut oil. They are one of the most popular items on the menu and come in 5-, 8-, 12-, and 30-count sizes.

Prices vary by location, but typical à la carte pricing is about $3.50 for a 5-count, $5.25 for an 8-count, $7.29 for a 12-count, and $15.99 for a 30-count. The meal adds a side and a drink.

Roughly 32 calories per nugget: a 5-count is about 160 calories, an 8-count is 250, a 12-count is around 380, and a 30-count is near 950. Confirm the current figures in the app or on our nutrition guide.

Catering nugget trays come in 64-count and 120-count. A 64-count feeds about 12–16 people and a 120-count feeds 24–30. See our heart tray guide and catering menu.

No. The breaded coating contains wheat and they are not gluten free. The gluten-free alternative is the grilled nuggets — see our grilled nuggets guide.

100% refined peanut oil, the same oil used for the chicken sandwich. The refined oil has the peanut proteins removed. See our cooking oil guide for details.

Nuggets are smaller, bite-sized pieces; Chick-n-Strips are larger, whole strips of hand-breaded chicken. Both are breaded and pressure-cooked. Strips are popular for dipping and catering.

Roughly one sauce per 8-count nugget and two for a 12-count, but most locations give extra sauces for free if you ask. See our sauces guide for every flavor.

Yes. Grilled nuggets are a separate, non-breaded option cooked on the grill — lighter and gluten free. See the grilled nuggets guide.

The breaded nuggets are not keto-friendly due to the breading. For keto, choose the grilled nuggets and a low-sugar sauce like Garden Herb Ranch or Zesty Buffalo.
