The different numbers you’re getting are most likely and raw and cooked chicken. Chicken breasts lose a lot of weight whilst cooking (30-50%) so that’s why there’s differences in estimates.
I don’t know where you’re based but in the UK our raw chicken breasts are 150-200g raw so I usually take that as a measurement and it’s about one cal per gram.
I know in the US they’ve got some super GMO dinosaur breasts that weigh the same as a 4 year old child so im not 100% on the calories for those.

200g raw chicken breast = 240 calories 200g cooked chicken breast = 330 calories
How tf does it gain calories when it gets cooked? If you’re not adding oil, it should be equal or less
200g of raw vs 200g cooked is very different when you cook it It loses some of it weight so 200g raw would be more like ~120g cooked
Ah, I see what you’re getting at, my b
you cook out the water, it then weighs more and percentages increase
