How many calories are in a boiled chicken breast?
You will have a difference in the calories depending on what it is cooked in, the oil adds calories and if you leave the skin on the breast fillet. A boiled chicken breast will contain less because of what it is cooked in. For interests sake – A chicken breast with no skin or bones will have 157 calories or 660 kilojoules if it is baked, grilled or poached without adding any fat. A roasted chicken breast (with skin on and bones) from a rotisseried or roast chicken will have 200 calories or 835 kilojoules. A chicken breast from KFC (from Australia – I realise this will be different in different countries) with coating will have 250 calories or 1045 kilojoules. I am not keen on boiled chicken. I usually remove the tenderloin from the chicken breast, then butterfly, season with salt and pepper and grill it on pan fry in a non-stick frying pan with a teeny bit of oil.
