KFC is pressure cooked. It really isn't very greasy compared, because it doesn't sit in the grease for more than a couple of minutes.

In fact, the KFC Nutrition Guide quotes an Original Recipe chicken breast (skin removed) at 3g of fat. Leave the skin and breading on, it's 19g of fat, 11g of carbs and 40g of protein. Taking the skin off removes the breading, too, reducing the carbs in that situation to 0g and fat to 3g and 29g of protein.

In short, if you take the skin off, you'd be hard-pressed to find a lower fat or lower carb fast food meat product anyway.
