Olive Garden's Chicken Abruzzi Review

Believe it or not, there is a way to eat carb free at Olive Garden. And, the new Chicken Abruzzi is just one option. This low calorie dinner (540 calories to be exact!) does not skimp on flavor. And, unlike most low calorie dishes at chains, this dish was filling.


The Chicken Abruzzi is served steaming in a porcelain bowl. A chicken breast lays atop a gentle hill of cannellini beans, fresh kale, and garden veggies. The warm, savory broth simmers beneath, and let me tell you, I think this meal would be best on a crisp fall day. The warmth travels to the tips of your toes and fingers! A meal that warms me up and fills me up is a definitely a win for me!

The only downer was the gristle and fat attached to the chicken I was served. It took away from the dish, but I am certain I was given a defective piece of chicken. Still, I had to dissect every bite, and that detracted from the overall meal.

Yummy? Yes! Tender chicken? No, at least not for me! But, hey I would give it a try! Hopefully, you will get a tender piece of chicken!

4 fierce stars for this dish!
