chicken marinade

For dinner tonight I am making a copy cat Chipotle Burrito bowl. I am marinating the chicken in the recipe bellow:

1 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons cumin powder
2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
6 cloves garlic
2 teaspoons salt
1 red onion, quartered
1/4 cup olive oil
3 chicken breasts

So my question is, I am not going to drink the marinade (obvi) I am going to let the chicken sit in it over night, and then cook it. But do I count all the calories in the oil if I am not going to be consuming all of the olive oil in the recipe? Does anyone have any ideas on how you would account for this?

The total calorie count for the total above is (for one serving): Chipotle's Chicken Homemade, 1 serving(s) 265cal 16fat 3carbs 28protien 1,257sodium 1 sugar

    Could measure how much marinade you don't cook or just figure a tablespoon of oil per breast. Even then I think you'd be overestimating.
