Panda Express String Bean Chicken Calories and Serving Guide

Standard String Bean Chicken nutrition at a glance

The standard String Bean Chicken Breast row represents a 5.60 oz serving. In addition to 210 calories, it lists 12g total fat, 2g saturated fat, 13g carbohydrates, 5g dietary fiber, 5g sugars, 12g protein, 30mg cholesterol, and 560mg sodium. These fields belong together as one published serving profile; mixing a calorie value from one variant with the protein or sodium from another creates an internally inconsistent result.

The item name describes both chicken breast and string beans, so the published row covers the prepared combination rather than chicken alone. Do not subtract vegetables, sauce, or another component by sight. The source does not provide separate standard rows for each ingredient inside this entree, and an individual scoop may contain a different visible balance of chicken and beans.

• Calories: 210 per listed 5.60 oz standard serving.
• Macros: 12g fat, 13g carbohydrates, and 12g protein.
• Other captured fields: 5g fiber, 5g sugars, and 560mg sodium.

Standard and Cub Meal servings are different rows

The same snapshot includes a separate String Bean Chicken Breast – Cub Meal row. That variant lists a 4.20 oz serving with 160 calories, 9g of fat, 10g of carbohydrates, 4g of fiber, 9g of protein, and 420mg of sodium. Its smaller serving and different values are why the 160-calorie number should not replace the 210-calorie standard entree in an adult Bowl or Plate model.

Likewise, do not put the standard 210-calorie row into a Cub Meal calculation when the smaller variant is the row actually selected. Read the complete display name, variant label, and serving weight together. The difference is 50 calories between the two complete published servings, but that does not imply every ounce can be scaled perfectly or that restaurant portions will match a calculated fraction.

Add String Bean Chicken to a Bowl total

For a standard Bowl source-row estimate, add one complete side row and one 210-calorie String Bean Chicken row. With Super Greens, which the snapshot lists at 130 calories per 10 oz standard serving, the model is 130 + 210 = 340 calories. It also combines the listed 9g protein from Super Greens with 12g from the entree for 21g of protein.

With White Steamed Rice at 520 calories per standard row, the same entree produces a 730-calorie model. With Chow Mein at 600 calories, it produces an 810-calorie model. The entree did not change in these examples; the side explains the different totals. Use the {{article:panda-express-bowl-vs-plate-calories}} guide for the full component-counting method.

A half-and-half side needs half-row arithmetic instead of two full side servings. For example, half White Rice plus half Super Greens models 260 + 65 = 325 side calories. Adding String Bean Chicken gives 535 calories. Label that as a sum of fractional published rows, because the source does not provide an official combined half-and-half record.

Use the entree once or twice in a Plate

A standard Plate model has one side and two entree servings. If String Bean Chicken is one of two different entrees, add its 210-calorie row once. If both entree selections are String Bean Chicken, add it twice for 420 entree calories before the side. For example, Super Greens plus two listed servings models 130 + 210 + 210 = 550 calories and 9 + 12 + 12 = 33g protein.

Repeating the row is a transparent way to represent two entree selections; it is not a promise that both scoops have identical weights or ingredient ratios. If the second entree is different, add that item’s own standard row instead. Do not average two entree values or treat the whole Plate as one undocumented serving.

Why one served portion may not match the row exactly

The 5.60 oz value is a source serving definition, not a scale reading for every order. String beans and chicken pieces do not have the same density, and a prepared batch can settle unevenly. Utensil fills, draining, and the balance captured in a scoop can change the weight and nutrition of the food actually served. The row remains useful because it supplies a consistent reference for planning and comparison.

Do not estimate a correction solely from how much chicken or how many beans are visible. Appearance does not reveal retained sauce, oil, or total food weight. If exact tracking matters, preserve the published-row estimate and record any separate measurements honestly rather than converting an eyeballed ratio into an official calorie claim.

Compare more than calories

The standard row provides 12g protein and 5g fiber, but it also provides 12g fat and 560mg sodium. Those numbers describe different dimensions and should be carried into a meal total alongside calories. A lower calorie result is not automatically appropriate for a particular person, and the nutrition table cannot decide personal dietary goals.

Ingredients and allergens require current official information, not inference from the entree name or macro profile. Recipes and availability can change. The Nutrition page page keeps all captured source fields visible, while the Menu guide helps confirm that the selected variant is the one intended.

Calculate the exact combination you plan to order

In the Panda Express calorie calculator, select String Bean Chicken Breast and verify the Standard label and 5.60 oz serving. Add the exact side and any second entree, then review quantities before using the total. Select the separate Cub Meal row only for a Cub Meal component model. This prevents an apparently small variant mismatch from changing every field in the calculation.

This guide uses the official-source snapshot captured August 17, 2026. For that dated standard row, the direct answer is 210 calories per 5.60 oz serving. Confirm current nutrition, ingredients, allergens, and availability through the official Panda Express nutrition page source when those details matter, and keep the result labeled as a serving-based planning estimate.
