  1. I feel like the nutrition facts need to be checked on this recipe. After making this for dinner, and looking at the nutrition facts of the individual components, there’s no way this is 500 calories for a 4oz piece.

    1. Hi Miriam, thanks for your feedback! Our dietitian calculates the nutrition information for all of our recipes and has confirmed that the nutrition facts are correct on this recipe. The nutrition facts are assuming each serving includes 1/4 of chicken coated in cheese and cracker crumbs and 1/4 of the sauce.
