The amount of boneless chicken meat equivalent to a whole cooked and deboned chicken typically varies based on the size of the chicken, but a general estimate is that a whole chicken yields about 60-70% of its weight in boneless meat after cooking and deboning. For example, if you have a 4-pound whole chicken, you can expect to get around 2.4 to 2.8 pounds of boneless chicken meat. Therefore, if you need the same amount of meat, you would use approximately 2.5 to 3 pounds of boneless chicken.
