I would recommend buying a food scale... Amazon has plenty from about 10-20 bucks for a decent budget priced scale. However, general rule of thumb is a fist size chicken breast is about 5 oz, so if it's a 2 fist size 10 oz. You said slightly smaller, so as a mere guess 8 oz.

Okay, thank you for replying, im definitely gonna get a food scale

No problem, happy to help out. A food scale is key when tracking macros.

A food scale would be best, but you can always estimate by the total weight of the package too. Say for example the package is 3lbs of chicken, if you're aiming for 4oz meals you can take the 3lbs (48oz) and divide by the size you want for each meal - 48/4 = 12. Then separate the food into 12 meals.

This isn't as accurate as a scale, but it's better than nothing
