Chicken Burrito

What Chipotle says it is

Chipotle’s printed nutrition sheet describes a burrito as: “Flour tortilla with a choice of cilantro-lime rice, black or pinto beans, meat, salsa, and cheese or sour cream.”

On the protein, Chipotle’s ingredients page says of chicken: “To prep our grilled chicken, we marinate it overnight in our smoky, spicy chipotle pepper adobo, and then grill it until it’s perfectly charred with a subtle caramelized flavor. And when it comes to chicken, we don’t bawk around. We currently source only Responsibly Raised birds, which in the U.S. means they’re fed a 100% vegetarian diet with no antibiotics, but we’re always striving to raise our standards even higher.” The statement for the chicken names ten ingredients: Black Pepper, Chipotle Chili, Chicken, Cumin, Garlic, Oregano, Salt, High Oleic Sunflower Oil, Distilled Vinegar and Water.

On 25 September 2026 the Chicken Burrito was listed at all 368 restaurants read, in 48 states and DC. That makes it a core item, on every open menu read. One of those menus marked it unavailable on the read day.

Why the listing and the build differ

The 180 calories the ordering menu lists for the Chicken Burrito are the 4 oz of chicken by itself; every other part of the order is chosen on the line and adds its own record. This site prints that figure as the listing and never as the meal.

The classic build on this page comes to 1,090 calories: Chicken (180 calories), Flour Tortilla (burrito) (320 calories), Cilantro-Lime White Rice (210 calories), Black Beans (130 calories), Fresh Tomato Salsa (25 calories), Monterey Jack Cheese (110 calories), Sour Cream (110 calories) and Romaine Lettuce (5 calories). The other reference builds: light at 550 calories and loaded at 1,515 calories. Chipotle’s printed sheet gives a built burrito as 740 to 1,210 calories; the classic build sits inside that range.

Protein runs 60 g across the classic build, 5.5 g per 100 calories, and sodium 2,240 mg, 97 percent of the 2,300 mg the FDA uses as the daily value. Press any part in the build above and the bars redraw from that part’s own record.

What the price buys

$8.45 to $12.10 for pickup across 368 restaurants, with a median of $9.80, read on 25 September 2026. The same menus carry Chipotle’s own delivery price: $12.75 at the median, 30.1 percent above pickup, before the service fees the checkout adds. Among the seven burritos on the board it is the cheapest at the median, level with Sofritas Burrito and Veggie Burrito; the dearest is the Steak Burrito at $11.80.

The cheapest state median on the read date was Kansas at $9.18, the dearest New York at $11.15. A state median stands on eight restaurants at most, so one dear or cheap restaurant moves it; the national range is the safer figure. Pick a state at the top of the page and every price on this site prints that state’s median.

The priced add-ons on a burrito: Guacamole $2.95 at the median ($2.85 to $3.20, 368 restaurants), Queso Blanco $1.70 at the median ($1.40 to $1.80, 368 restaurants) and Cilantro Lime Sauce $1.00 at the median ($1.00 to $1.00, 368 restaurants). A second portion of chicken (double protein) adds $4.00 at the median, $3.35 to $5.10 across 368 restaurants. So the classic build on this page stands at $9.80 and the loaded build at $14.45, the entree plus $4.65 of add-ons at the national medians.

The figures against a day

The listed protein alone is 9 percent of a 2,000 calorie day by calories and 13 percent of the 2,300 mg sodium daily value. It carries 32 g of protein, 17.8 g per 100 calories, and 3 g of saturated fat (15 percent of the daily value). Cholesterol, which the calculator does not print, is 125 mg on the printed sheet’s row for the same portion.

The classic build is 55 percent of a 2,000 calorie day and 97 percent of the sodium daily value. Carbohydrate runs 120 g with 13 g of fiber (46 percent of the 28 g daily value); fat 38.5 g, of which 16 g saturated.

Allergens and diets on this order

Chipotle’s allergens and special diets chart has a row for Chicken: it contains none of the four chart allergens (dairy, soy, wheat and gluten, sulphites); the row marks it keto and paleo. The classic build on this page contains wheat and gluten, sulphites and dairy, by the rows for its parts; it is not vegetarian (Chicken rules it out).

On the tortilla the brand is plain: “If you avoid gluten, don’t eat our flour tortillas. If you are highly sensitive to gluten and would like us to change our gloves, just let us know at the start of your order.” Every row on the chart carries the same two cautions: “Individual foods may come into contact with one another during preparation, which is not reflected on this chart.” “Although we do not use eggs, mustard, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, shellfish, or fish as ingredients in our food, Chipotle cannot guarantee the complete absence of these allergens in its restaurants.”

Where else the protein turns up

The same protein feeds the Family Meal - Chicken, $53.00 at the median for four to six people, $13.25 a head at four. One of the brand’s own configured orders builds on the Chicken Burrito: Double High Protein Burrito ($13.80, 1,020 calories). For a child, the Chicken Kid’s Build Your Own is $5.70 and Chicken Kid’s Quesadilla is $5.20 at their medians. The same protein in the other formats: Chicken Bowl at $9.80, Chicken Salad at $9.80, Chicken Tacos (3) at $9.80 and Chicken Quesadilla at $10.35.
