Hi all. Just a quick question. I was following John's nutritional information for chicken breast (8oz=220 cal, 50g protein), but it doesn't seem to gel with some info I've come across on the net, which has it at 3oz=140 cal, 27g protein. I'm a little concerned I've been mis-counting my calories and protein. Anyone know the real deal for boneless, skinless chicken breast, usually just baked in the oven? Thanks very much.

www.nutritiondata.com has a really good database

From that :
Chicken, broilers or fryers, breast, meat only, cooked, roasted
100g (3.57 oz) : 165 cal, 31g protein
