तक्त्यातील ओळीपासून एका प्लेटपर्यंत
- Read the per-100 g row for seekh kebab (chicken) 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 215 kcal आणि 18.0 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 2 skewers at 120 g (minced chicken with fat, grilled on skewers). 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: 215 × 120 ÷ 100 = 258 kcal प्रति प्लेट. कोणताही आकडा वर गोल केलेला, बदललेला किंवा सारखा केलेला नाही — दोन प्लेट म्हणजे एका प्लेटच्या नेमके दुप्पट.
- 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.

Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 258 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.

प्रश्न
How many calories are in 2 skewers?
About 258 kcal for 2 skewers, taken as 120 g (minced chicken with fat, grilled on skewers). Two come to roughly 516 kcal and three to 774 kcal. Per 100 g, seekh kebab (chicken) carries 215 kcal.
How much protein is in seekh kebab (chicken)?
18.0 g per 100 g, which works out to 21.6 g in 2 skewers. That is 33% of the energy in this food, and ranks 6th of 20 in the chicken, mutton, fish & egg group on this site.
Is seekh kebab (chicken) good for weight loss?
At 215 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 minced chicken with fat, grilled on skewers. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.
Similar foods
Four more from chicken, mutton, fish & egg, and three from elsewhere with a similar energy density.
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.
