How do I convert pounds to cups?

Pounds to cups

Many recipes call for a certain amount of "cups" of cooked chicken and knowing how much raw chicken to buy can be a challenge.

Next time you're faced with this dilemma, just remember that it's basically a 1:1 ratio.

1 whole chicken, about 3-4 pounds, will yield 3-4 cups cooked chicken.
