Chipotle Burrito Bowl: Double Chicken, No Rice (~595 cal)
By Alec Zakhary
A Chipotle burrito bowl with double chicken and no rice is 595 calories per Chipotle's own calculator (76g protein, 17g fat, 44g carbs from beans + salsa). But aggregated customer reports show "double chicken" often arrives as 5-6 oz instead of the official 8 oz.

| Macro | Per serving | Per 100g | % DV |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein | 76.0 g | 22.4 g | 152% |
| Carbs | 44.0 g | 12.9 g | 16% |
| Fat | 17.0 g | 5 g | 22% |
| ↳ Saturated fat | 4.0 g | — | 20% |
| Fiber | 11.0 g | — | 39% |
| Sodium | 1860 mg | — | 81% |
Daily-value percentages reference a 2,000-calorie diet (FDA 2020).
What customer reports show
Beyond the brand-claimed numbers, here's what aggregated customer reports and independent investigations turned up:
- Chipotle officially scoops 4 oz of chicken per portion, so "double chicken" should be 8 oz on the menu — confirmed in Chipotle's published nutrition PDF.
- Independent investigations (Insider, Daily Dot) have weighed real bowls and found single-portion chicken averages 2.9–3.1 oz, meaning many "double chicken" orders end up around 5–6 oz total.
- Some Chipotle locations have started measuring 4 oz of meat with 4 fluid-ounce cups — viral on Threads — which is not equivalent to 4 oz by mass and skews customers toward smaller real portions.
- Online "double chicken" orders (DoorDash, Chipotle app) have reported even worse variance than in-person orders, per multiple Reddit threads and the Brobible report on a Pittsburgh customer.
My take
Double chicken on paper is 8 oz / 595 cal. In practice, expect 5-7 oz at most stores — that's 70-80g protein, not 76. If you're macro-cutting, weigh one bowl at home to learn your store's normal.
Frequently asked questions
How many calories does a Chipotle burrito bowl with double chicken and no rice have?
About 595 calories per Chipotle's own nutrition calculator, assuming the standard build of double chicken, black beans, tomatillo-red chili salsa, and romaine lettuce. That breaks down to 76g protein, 44g carbs (most from the beans), and 17g fat. Real-world calories may be lower if your store under-portions the chicken — many customers report receiving 5-6 oz instead of the official 8 oz.
Is a Chipotle bowl with double chicken and no rice keto-friendly?
Mostly yes, but watch the beans. The version above runs 44g carbs from a serving of black beans plus salsa. Drop the beans (or swap for fajita veggies) and you're under 15g net carbs — solid for standard keto. Add cheese (110 cal) or sour cream (110 cal) without spiking carbs, but skip the corn salsa (high carb).
How much chicken do you actually get with "double"?
Officially 8 oz (two 4-oz scoops). In practice, several independent tests (Insider, Daily Dot, Tasting Table) found single portions averaging 2.9-3.1 oz, which would put a real "double" closer to 5-6 oz. Some stores have started using 4 fl-oz cups to measure, which understates by mass — Threads has video evidence.
Should I order online or in person if I want the full double portion?
In-person orders tend to be more consistent — you can see the scoop happen and ask for a second one explicitly. Online orders (DoorDash, Chipotle app) have produced the worst variance reports, per Reddit threads and a viral Brobible piece on a Pittsburgh customer. If portion size matters for your macros, order in-store.
How does this compare to a single-chicken bowl with no rice?
A single-chicken no-rice bowl with the same toppings is around 415 calories (180 cal chicken + 130 cal beans + 100 cal salsa & lettuce) — about 44g protein. Double chicken adds another 180 cal and roughly doubles protein to 76g. So the cost of "double" is +180 cal and +32g protein.
