Its 28.35grams = 1 oz .... an 8oz breast (Like I buy the roided out chickens

) = 226.8 grams...

Are you asking how many total grams, or how many grams of protein? Check fitday.com for good nutritional info on many different foods.

I find grams are much easier to use than ounces. Well I think metric in general makes so much more sense.

But it's easy to figure out in grams. Chicken is usually between 17-20% protein. Therefore, if you use between 100-125g of chicken (regular sized breast) you will get around 22g protein on average.

half of chicken breast without skin and bone is around 86grams which is around 27grams of protein and 140 kcals.
