You may have a hard time imagining anything other than fried chicken from KFC, but their grilled options are just as flavorful and satisfying. Save the fried chicken for special occasions when you’re really craving that crispy outer layer, but if it’s juicy chicken you’re craving, the grilled varieties will fulfill those needs.
“Kentucky Grilled Chicken is a healthier alternative to fried chicken because of its lower fat content,” says Sabat. “For 210 calories and only seven grams of fat, this is the healthiest option on the menu. Also, opting for a side salad can add more vegetables to the meal.”
Have you tried the “Not So Secret Menu” at In-N-Out yet? It feels like a secret menu because it includes items that aren’t on their regular list, but these options are also completely open to the public eye and featured on their website. One of the healthier burger styles on the “Not So Secret Menu” is the Protein Style Burger, “which removes the refined carbohydrates from the bun and replaces it with lettuce, reducing overall calorie intake,” says Sabat.
