About the Oporto Half Chicken Box

Half a chicken is a serious amount of meat, and Oporto backs it up with two sides rather than one. The official listing names chips and spicy rice, then a pita with dip and a 375mL drink. The contents line describes the bread as a Small Pita. Like the quarter version, the box also sits in the Flame Grilled Chicken range. It is also the only box on the list to include rice.

Spicy rice is the difference you will notice first. It brings warmth and a soft base under the chicken, while the chips give crunch. The pita works for pulling meat off the bone or soaking up the dip. Oporto bastes its chicken in Lemon & Herb, Original Chilli, New Portuguese BBQ or Extremo Picante, with Extremo Picante the hottest; check with your store which ones apply to this box. With 6,979 kJ on the label, the box is a lot for one person. Two light eaters share it comfortably, and it also suits a single big appetite after training or a long day on site. Hot basting lovers can lean into Extremo Picante, and the rice and pita help take the edge off.

Smaller appetite? The Quarter Chicken Box trims the chicken to a quarter and drops the rice, for $17.00. Those who want a burger in the mix can look at Antonio's Where it all Began Box, which costs the same and centres on a Double Bondi Burger. A family of three can pair it with a Crispy Wings and Chips Snack Box for some crunch on the side. That combination stays under the price of two Half Chicken Boxes.

How to order the Half Chicken Box

One format only, with no variants listed. No basting list is attached to this box in our data, so name your preferred basting at the counter and the team will confirm. Because sides and a drink are part of the box, the meal upgrade does not apply, and our data carries no 9pm Late Night Menu flag for it. As one item, the Half Chicken Box is absent from Oporto's allergen chart. Check the chicken and basting, spicy rice, chips, pita and dip separately, or ask in store.
