Huge Chicken Breasts For Fajitas & Margaritas - Weight Help Needed!

In summary, the recommended weight for chicken breasts is 6-8 ounces per piece. Frozen chicken can be used for the recipe, but it should be thawed completely before cooking. While marinating the chicken will add extra flavor, it is not necessary for this recipe. The best way to cook the chicken for fajitas is to grill or pan-sear it for about 6-7 minutes on each side, until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Alternatively, it can be baked in the oven at 375°F for 25-30 minutes. This chicken can also be used for various other dishes such as salads, tacos, burritos, sandwiches, and wraps.

I am doing a fajitas and margaritas show tonight- but had to buy chicken in bulk. Does anyone know how much the weight is for the chicken in this recipe? (I know it says 3-4 chicken breasts, the ones I bought are huge- the weight would really help!) THANKS!!!
 
3-4 chicken breasts usually weigh 1.25 to 1.5 lbs.
