Chicken 65 calories
per plate, not per 100 g
The short answer
One plate, weighed
368kcal 1 plate — taken as 150 g — has about 368 calories, with 30.0 g protein, 15.0 g carbohydrate and 21.0 g fat. Two come to 735 kcal, three to 1,103 kcal.
Per 100 g, chicken 65 carries 245 kcal and 20.0 g protein.

From a table row to one plate
- Read the per-100 g row for chicken 65 out of the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 — analysed on Indian samples, so Indian wheat and Indian milk are not swapped for American ones. It gives 245 kcal and 20.0 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 plate at 150 g (battered and deep-fried, then tossed with curry leaves). That weight is the number other calorie sites decline to state, and it is where their answers stop being answers.
- Multiply, linearly, and print the working: 245 × 150 ÷ 100 = 368 kcal per plate. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two plates are exactly twice one.
- Reconcile the energy against its own macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. A row more than 15% away from 4P + 4C + 9F (20% above 6 g of fibre) stops the build rather than shipping.

Kept in kilocalories — the "calories" printed on a packet. Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate. Fibre is entered on its own line and is counted in neither the carbohydrate column nor the energy figure.
The 100 g column, kept for the record
Because every other site quotes it, and because you should be able to check our arithmetic against theirs.

|---|---|---|
| Energy | 245 kcal | 368 kcal |
| Protein | 20.0 g | 30.0 g |

What it takes to burn off 1 plate of chicken 65
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 368 kcal, using MET values from the 2024 Adult Compendium of Physical Activities. This is a scale check, not a licence — appetite rises with activity and the two do not cancel neatly.

Calculated as MET × 3.5 × 70 kg ÷ 200 kcal per minute. Full working on the method page, and the whole activity dataset at BurnLab.
Where chicken 65 sits in an Indian plate
Among the 20 chicken, mutton, fish & egg entries on this site, chicken 65 ranks 4th for protein (20.0 g per 100 g) and 1st for energy density (245 kcal per 100 g). The protein leader in the group is chicken tikka at 25.0 g.
Protein supplies 33% of its energy, which is high for an Indian staple and the reason it keeps you full longer than the calorie count suggests. There is very little fibre here — 0.8 g per 100 g.

Questions
How many calories are in 1 plate?
About 368 kcal for 1 plate, taken as 150 g (battered and deep-fried, then tossed with curry leaves). Two come to roughly 735 kcal and three to 1,103 kcal. Per 100 g, chicken 65 carries 245 kcal.
How much protein is in chicken 65?
20.0 g per 100 g, which works out to 30.0 g in 1 plate. That is 33% of the energy in this food, and ranks 4th of 20 in the chicken, mutton, fish & egg group on this site.
Is chicken 65 good for weight loss?
At 245 kcal per 100 g it is mid-range — it fits a deficit if the portion is measured rather than eyeballed. The protein share is high enough to be genuinely filling. No single food makes or breaks a diet; the total for the day does.
Why does this differ from other calorie sites?
Two reasons. First, most sites publish a per-100 g figure from a US database and leave you to guess what a roti or a katori weighs; this page states the serving weight up front. Second, home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil and ghee — the figures here assume battered and deep-fried, then tossed with curry leaves. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

Where this number comes from
From the composition tables, not re-checked against a named row. This site does not claim a carbohydrate basis for this figure. Either it is a hand-entered composite with no stored ingredient list to derive one from, or the named table row disagrees with what is published here by too much to say which basis the number is on.
Every food on this site carries this label. What each one means, and how many foods sit behind each, is set out on the method page.
Nutrient values are averages for the stated preparation, based on the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN) and standard recipe analysis. Energy is reconciled against the macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. General information only — not medical or nutrition advice. Home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil, ghee and portion size; every value here is an average for a stated serving, with the assumption shown.
