size of chicken breasts

05/21/09 		Could you please tell me what size of chicken breasts (3 oz or 4 oz) to order for chicken breasts in a cream sauce? This will be the only meat with two vegetables, potato casserole, salad and rolls. I am cooking for 200 for a 6:30 dinner. Also how many breasts will I need. Thank you very much. You have a wonderful website!
