Cooked chicken: Nutrition Facts and Calories

This category covers a range of pre-cooked chicken products, often found in the chilled aisle. You'll find items like cooked chicken pieces, ready-to-eat chicken salads, and chicken pieces in sauces or marinades. These can be convenient additions to meals, from sandwiches to stir-fries. When choosing cooked chicken, check the nutrition label for salt content. The UK government recommends adults consume no more than 6g of salt per day. The ingredient list can also be helpful. Look for chicken as the primary ingredient. If the product contains added sauces or marinades, check the ingredients for sugars and saturated fat, which are often present in these additions. The NHS Eatwell Guide advises that foods high in fat, salt, or sugar should be eaten less often and in smaller amounts. While fibre and wholegrains are important for a balanced diet, they are less commonly found in simple cooked chicken products themselves, but may be present in accompaniments or meal kits. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
