Nando’s UK: 1/4 Chicken with rice, chips or corn

Published October 18, 2026 · United Kingdom source servings

Using Nando’s standard UK menu portions, 1/4 Chicken plus regular Spicy Rice totals 535 kcal and 43.1 g protein. Keep the same chicken and choose regular PERi-Salted Chips instead: the listed food total becomes 787 kcal and 44 g protein.

These are sums of the named chicken and one named side. They do not include an extra sauce, dessert, drink or a second side, and they are not a restaurant-published combo total.

Start with the exact portions

For example, the rice order is 289 + 246 = 535 kcal and 39.3 + 3.8 = 43.1 g protein. Each item is counted once. Do not add a chicken-and-sides bundle total on top of these components.

Same chicken, three different sides

Switching from the regular chips to the regular rice changes this order by 252 kcal, 0.9 g protein and 4 g fibre. The chips add more fibre in these particular published portions: 7.9 g versus 3.9 g in the rice. A single label such as “lighter side” would hide that trade-off.

The corn order totals 431 kcal and 42.8 g protein. Nando’s describes the regular Corn on the Cob as served with butter; do not log it as plain, unbuttered corn or silently remove butter from the published recipe.

Compare the two regular side portions

Regular, large and Nandino are different entries

Choose the regular side shown here. The menu also has large sides intended for sharing and separate Nandino portions. A regular side is not automatically half of every large side, and a child’s side is not interchangeable with the adult entry.

No gram weight is supplied for these source portions, so this comparison uses named servings. If you divide a shared side, log the fraction you ate as an estimate rather than claiming that it was weighed.

Check Northern Ireland and your sauce choice

The official UK menu lists a separate Northern Ireland Spicy Rice recipe starting at 197 kcal, rather than the standard 246 kcal used above. The 535 kcal rice total therefore must not be presented as the Northern Ireland order. Use that branch’s matching local entry instead.

The calculations use the named base recipes without adding optional spice adjustments, bottled sauces or extras. Check the current restaurant information for the recipe you choose. Salt is shown in grams here; where GetMacros displays sodium, the conversion is salt in grams × 1,000 ÷ 2.5, not a separate laboratory sodium measurement.
