Fazolis Baked Chicken Broccoli Penne

Fazoli’s Baked Chicken Broccoli Penne: Price & Calories

Fazoli’s Baked Chicken Broccoli Penne costs $12.49 and is the chain’s biggest chicken pasta plate: penne in creamy Alfredo sauce, topped with Italian-style diced chicken, Parmesan-roasted broccoli and tomatoes, then baked under mozzarella and provolone until the cheese turns golden. It comes with two Signature Garlic Breadsticks.

One warning before the numbers: Fazoli’s publishes two different calorie counts for this dish. The menu board says 920 calories, while Fazoli’s own nutrition guide lists 1,300. This post gives you both figures, explains why they differ, and shows the full nutrition panel, the ingredients, the allergens, how it compares with Fazoli’s other chicken pastas, and a home version for the many people searching for the recipe.

Prices at Fazoli’s are set by each restaurant, so your local price can differ slightly. Delivery apps run higher: the same plate shows at $14.99 on delivery menus, before fees. The $12.49 above is the in-store price tracked on our menu, and you can check it against the full fazolis menu with prices on the homepage. 

What Is Fazoli’s Baked Chicken Broccoli Penne?

It is one of the Fan Favorites on Fazoli’s menu and the only baked pasta built around a vegetable. The base is penne pasta coated in Alfredo sauce. On top goes Italian-style diced chicken, broccoli roasted with Parmesan, and tomatoes. The whole plate is covered with mozzarella and provolone and finished in the oven, so the cheese browns instead of just melting.

If you know Fazoli’s Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo, think of this as its baked cousin: penne instead of fettuccine, broccoli and tomato added, and a browned cheese crust on top. That crust, plus the roasted broccoli, is what separates it from every other chicken pasta Fazoli’s sells.

Fazoli’s Baked Chicken Broccoli Penne Nutrition Facts

The table below uses Fazoli’s official nutrition guide, the same dataset behind our Fazoli’s nutrition facts page, because it is the only complete official panel Fazoli’s publishes for this dish:

Read those numbers honestly. The 60 grams of protein is the highest of any single pasta plate covered in this guide series so far, and the broccoli is real. But 1,300 calories is about two-thirds of a 2,000-calorie day, and 4,470 mg of sodium is nearly double the full daily limit in one plate. The two included Signature Garlic Breadsticks are listed separately in the nutrition guide at 260 calories, so a full tray, entrée plus breadsticks, lands around 1,560 calories.

How It Compares With Fazoli’s Other Chicken Pastas

All figures below are from the same official nutrition guide, so the comparison is like for like:

The pattern is clear: baking plus the cheese crust makes this the heaviest chicken pasta Fazoli’s sells, and also the highest in protein. If you want the same flavors for fewer calories, the Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo gives you Alfredo and chicken at 870 calories, and you can read its full breakdown in our Fazoli’s Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo post. If you want a baked pasta with a tomato base instead of Alfredo, the Baked Ziti with Meat Sauce is the closest match.
