Probably a silly question, but I don't know if one chicken breast is considered only the one half or both of them together.

    Weigh it. That's the only real way to know for sure how many calories. Even if you know if it is half or whole, chickens vary in size so it still doesn't get you any closer to the truth.

    Another vote for getting a digital food scale and weighing it. This one simple purchase has made logging food so much easier (not to mention more accurate.)
