The price is missing here for a reason. KFC does not publish one we could check, and a guess dressed as a figure is worse than an honest gap.
Allergens KFC declares
None of the 14 regulated allergens is listed as an ingredient.

Everything You Need to Know About KFC Cajun Dirty Rice
How to order Cajun Dirty Rice at KFC
Counter, kiosk and app all carry it. The KFC app adds collection and delivery. It is filed under Sides. Branch by branch availability varies, which the app reflects once you choose a location.
KFC Cajun Dirty Rice price in 2026
There is no verified KFC Cajun Dirty Rice price for 2026. KFC prices per branch and publishes no national list for it, so the accurate figure is the one your own branch shows in 2026. Any site quoting a single exact national price for this item is guessing, and we would rather show the gap.
Diet marking
KFC marks this as vegan and vegetarian. That is the chain's own classification of the recipe rather than a statement about how it is cooked, and vegan marking in particular sits alongside shared equipment at most of these brands.
A lighter choice in the same section
2 Corn Cobettes (Large) sits in the same part of the menu at 115 kcal, which is 102 fewer than this. That swap is the single biggest change available inside this section, and it needs no substitution or special request at the counter.
Finding it near you
We list 890 KFC branches across 4 of the four UK nations, with the Northern Ireland postcode area holding the most at 32. Menus vary by site, so a listing here is national rather than a promise about your nearest one. The KFC app confirms it in seconds.
Protein for the calories
It gives 1.8g of protein per 100 kcal, against a menu average of 3.8g across everything we hold for KFC. That is a weak ratio for this menu, which matters more than the raw protein figure when you are comparing two items of different sizes. On raw protein it ranks 6th of 8 in its section.
Pro Tips for Ordering Cajun Dirty Rice
The side is where a meal grows
Sides are priced low enough to feel incidental and carry enough energy to change a meal's total. The smaller size, or one shared between two people, keeps the main choice intact. KFC lists sides separately from meals for exactly this reason.
What 217 kcal means here
217 kcal is about level with the Sides average. That is a normal single course for most people, and it leaves room for a side. The 2,000 kcal figure printed on UK menus is a reference intake for an average adult, not a target, and it is the number these percentages are worked against.
Allergens declared
KFC lists none of the 14 allergens UK law regulates as an ingredient of this item. A declaration covers the recipe and not the kitchen, and every one of these chains prepares food in shared fryers and on shared surfaces. For a severe allergy the only reliable check is asking staff on the day.
