Single chicken bowl: 655 calories, 50 g protein. Add 180 calories and 32 g protein. Result: 835 calories, 82 g protein. Sodium rises by 310 mg to 1,920 mg. Nothing else on the bowl changes, which is what makes double protein the most predictable modification on the menu.
The second scoop raises protein by 64% while raising calories by 27%. Protein density improves from 7.6 g per 100 calories to 9.8 g. No other single change on the line improves that ratio as much.

Yes, double chicken is the best protein modification on the menu. The second scoop adds 32 g of protein for 180 calories, improving the bowl's ratio from 7.6 to 9.8 g per 100 calories. No topping comes close: guacamole adds 230 calories for 2 g of protein.
Double chicken adds 310 mg of sodium, taking a standard bowl from 1,610 mg to 1,920 mg. Chicken is a relatively low-sodium protein, so this is a smaller penalty than doubling barbacoa at 530 mg or sofritas at 555 mg would carry. Adding chips on top would push the meal past the 2,300 mg daily limit.
Yes, double protein works in every format, and the arithmetic does not change. A second scoop adds 180 calories and 32 g of protein to whatever the base format already contains. A double-chicken burrito therefore reaches 1,155 calories. Build either version in the calculator to see the full totals. Asking for the tortilla on the side, listed in the off-menu requests, keeps the choice open until you eat.
