Moderate5 orders

Popeyes is built around fried chicken, but the blackened line changes things. Blackened tenders are grilled, not breaded, and deliver some of the best protein-to-calorie ratios in fast food. Stick to the blackened menu and Popeyes becomes workable.

Tips

Order on the app to see full nutrition and customize your order.
The 5-piece blackened tenders are one of the best protein values in fast food at 43g protein for 280 calories.
Ask for sauces on the side: each adds 50-150 calories.
The 3-piece blackened tenders work well on low appetite days. Enough to eat comfortably without pushing past your limit.
Water and diet sodas are both zero-calorie and work well here.

New to GLP-1?

In your first few months, the 3-piece blackened tenders are the easiest order. Small, protein-dense, and nothing about them is hard on your stomach.
