How many calories are there in 3oz of plained grilled skinless chicken breast? Have found many varying answers and looking for something more concrete.

    I buy frozen chicken breasts and I go based on what it says on the package. For the chicken I use 3oz is 120 calories.

    i just go with the highest count which i count mine as 150.. the highest is the safest when trying to control diets.. besides you wont miss the give or take 30ish calories :)

    above posts are good :) just remember, don't forget oil! and salt etc that you may use as well. It's surprising how those little things add up

    I'd use the entry in the database that says: Chicken - Breast, meat only, cooked, roasted

    You might have to convert oz to g but it's based on information from the USDA (look for entries without a * next to it to get those, for the most part).

    This is what I do, too. If I used any extras (oil, sauce, etc.) I add them separately.
