I loved this recipe but wonder how you figure 196.1 calories per serving when you don't measure the chicken? Chicken breasts can widely vary in size. Should I have used one cup of chicken?

This is so good! I cooked the whole chicken breast and will have the other half tomorrow. Hot and spicy is my type of food. I didn't use the salad dressing because it didn't need it with the parmesan cheese and warm chicken breast.

I did not have any cajun spices so I used Thai spices instead. This was so easy because I used precooked chunks of chicken breast from Schwan's. No cooking and no mess. Best if all it was really good. I plan on using this one often! - 8/4/10

Calories are misleading. I've purchased skinless, boneless chicken breasts that weigh anywhere from 5 ounces to over 12 ounces. This recipe should have specified the weight of the chicken. - 5/1/12
