A whole rotisserie chicken typically contains around 1,200 calories, depending on the size and specific preparation
. For more detailed breakdowns:
- A 100-gram serving of rotisserie chicken breast has about 195 calories, 26 grams of protein, and 8.8 grams of fat
- A 3-ounce (85-gram) serving of rotisserie chicken thigh with skin has approximately 192 calories, while the breast with skin has about 149 calories; removing the skin reduces calories further
- One cup (about 135 grams) of rotisserie chicken contains roughly 265 calories, 34 grams of protein, and 14 grams of fat
The calorie content varies by the part of the chicken (breast vs. thigh) and whether the skin is eaten. The skin adds significant fat and calories. Generally, the breast meat without skin is the leanest and lowest in calories, while thighs with skin are higher in calories and fat
. In summary, a typical whole rotisserie chicken ranges around 1,200 calories, with per-serving calories depending on the portion and skin consumption.
