As a general rule of thumb, a palm-size portion or 70-100 grams cooked is a good guide for lunch while a hand-size or 150-200 grams cooked is reasonable for evening meals.

Because hand sizes vary, compare your fist size to an actual measuring cup. Two servings, or 6 oz., of lean meat (poultry, fish, shellfish, beef) should be a part of a daily diet. Measure the right amount with your palm. One palm size portion equals 3 oz., or one serving.
