∙ 15y agoRecipeZaar (Deb's Recipe) noted that 3 cups boneless chicken breasts diced = about 1-1/2 lbs. but I'm not sure how many chicken breasts that is. Since the weight of a boneless chicken breast depends upon its size, it is difficult to know how many cups two of them equals. A typical sized chicken breast portion seems to be around 3-4 oz., and there are some huge chicken breasts available, typically sold 4 to a package fresh. I think these weigh around 6-8 oz. each.
Having said all of that, I just measured 2 cups (cubed/diced) using three boneless chicken breasts (each weighing 3-4 oz.). Hope this is helpful.
