Chicken thigh, fried, coated, skin/coating eaten, pre-cooked calories: 305 per 1 medium thigh (110 g)
This exact USDA record reports 305 calories for 1 medium thigh (110 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 305 calories for 1 medium thigh at 110 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 277 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 20 g protein, 0.3 g fiber, and 510 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is chicken, broilers or fryers, thigh, meat and skin, cooked, roasted, representing 73.3% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 4 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 medium thigh 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 79–388 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 2706048: “Chicken thigh, fried, coated, skin / coating eaten, from pre-cooked.” 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 2706048, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “1 oz, cooked” through “1 large thigh” 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 | 79 kcal | 5.2 g | 0.1 g | 132 mg |
| 1 medium thighUSDA-listed household measure | 110 g | 305 kcal | 20 g | 0.3 g | 510 mg |
| 1 large thighUSDA-listed household measure | 140 g | 388 kcal | 25.5 g | 0.4 g | 650 mg |
02 · Fixed-weight context
Where 100 grams sits inside Chicken, whole pieces
The comparison set contains 125 exact records in the Chicken, whole pieces USDA category. Here, “upper quarter” describes FDC 2706048’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 2706048’s 110 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Iron; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. 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.
Strength-side signals
Iron1 mg
≈ 8% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Tradeoff-side signals

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Chicken thigh, fried, coated, skin / coating eaten, from pre-cooked,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706049 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Listed portion span: 1 oz, cooked to 1 large thigh
USDA assigns those measures 28.4 g and 140 g. At this record’s fixed composition, scaled energy moves from 79 kcal to 388 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706049
At an equal 100 g, this record has 7.2 g more carbohydrate than “Chicken thigh, fried, coated, skin / coating not eaten, from pre-cooked.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Chicken, broilers or fryers, thigh, meat and skin, cooked, roasted
The source formulation has 4 input rows; Chicken, broilers or fryers, thigh, meat and skin, cooked, roasted supplies 73.3% 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; skin / coating eaten; from pre-cooked” fits. Inspect FDC 2706049 when “fried; coated; skin / coating not eaten; from pre-cooked” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 85 more calories, 5.9 g less protein, and 7.2 g more carbohydrate than “Chicken thigh, fried, coated, skin / coating not eaten, from pre-cooked.”
Only this record lists Chicken, broilers or fryers, thigh, meat and skin, cooked, roasted; Breading or batter as ingredient in food. Only the comparison record lists Chicken, broilers or fryers, thigh, meat only, cooked, roasted. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
5 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.

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 thigh, fried, coated, skin / coating eaten, from pre-cooked,” 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 2706048 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 277 kcal per 100 g becomes 305 kcal at 110 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 medium thigh 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: 2706048
FNDDS food code: 24157310
The scaling for FDC 2706048 can be exact while the match to “Chicken thigh, fried, coated, skin / coating eaten, from pre-cooked” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 110 g weight, 4-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
