Chicken breast, fried, coated, coating eaten, raw-prepared calories: 361 per 1 breast (165 g)
This exact USDA record reports 361 calories for 1 breast (165 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 361 calories for 1 breast at 165 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 219 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 40.6 g protein, 0.3 g fiber, and 525 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin not eaten, from raw, representing 78% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 3 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 breast at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
The household measures attached to this record span roughly 62–405 calories across the listed portions. That is a set of scaled examples—not a confidence interval, a recommendation, or a claim about the full universe of recipes.
Calculated from the smallest and largest usable household measures listed by USDA for this exact FNDDS record; not a confidence interval.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2705975: “Chicken breast, fried, coated, prepared skinless, coating eaten, from raw.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2705975, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 oz, cooked” through “1 large breast” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 oz, cookedUSDA-listed household measure | 28.4 g | 62 kcal | 7 g | 0.1 g | 90 mg |
| 1 medium breastUSDA-listed household measure | 165 g | 361 kcal | 40.6 g | 0.3 g | 525 mg |
| 1 large breastUSDA-listed household measure | 185 g | 405 kcal | 45.5 g | 0.4 g | 588 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context

The comparison set contains 125 exact records in the Chicken, whole pieces USDA category. Here, “middle half” describes FDC 2705975’s energy position in that corpus—not nutritional quality, desirability, or a health rating.

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2705975’s 165 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Potassium; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Chicken breast, fried, coated, prepared skinless, coating eaten, from raw,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2705974 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 oz, cooked to 1 large breast
USDA assigns those measures 28.4 g and 185 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 62 kcal to 405 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2705974
At an equal 100 g, this record has 6 g more carbohydrate than “Chicken breast, fried, coated, skin / coating not eaten, from raw.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin not eaten, from raw
The source formulation has 3 input rows; Chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin not eaten, from raw supplies 78% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when “fried; coated; prepared skinless; coating eaten” fits. Inspect FDC 2705974 when “fried; coated; skin / coating not eaten; from raw” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Exact-record context
What makes this USDA record distinct?
For FDC 2705975, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Chicken, whole pieces” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 43 more calories, 5 g less protein, and 6 g more carbohydrate than “Chicken breast, fried, coated, skin / coating not eaten, from raw.”
Only this record lists Breading or batter as ingredient in food. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
4 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
The listed formulations differ
The formulation rows differ, but the source data do not isolate which component caused any nutrient difference. Input weights describe the standardized formulation—not final plated proportions.
Shared listed inputs: Chicken breast, baked, broiled, or roasted, skin not eaten, from raw; Vegetable oil, NFS.
Listed only in this record: Breading or batter as ingredient in food.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 165 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 breast (165 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 120 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 breast (120 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2705975 with FDC 2705974 at equal mass; use their 165 g and 120 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2705975 versus FDC 2705974 is a comparison of standardized source records—not a measurement of your meal, an overall food-quality rank, or proof that one input caused a difference.

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with amount of absorbed frying fat, portion size, cut and fat trim, cooking method.
For “Chicken breast, fried, coated, prepared skinless, coating eaten, from raw,” resolve amount of absorbed frying fat first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
amount of absorbed frying fat
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 02
portion size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 03
cut and fat trim
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 04
cooking method
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2705975 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 219 kcal per 100 g becomes 361 kcal at 165 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” The separately listed 1 breast has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2705975
FNDDS food code: 24127202
The scaling for FDC 2705975 can be exact while the match to “Chicken breast, fried, coated, prepared skinless, coating eaten, from raw” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 165 g weight, 3-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
