Hi Cher,
This is a very helpful site when cooking for crowds: http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/cooking-for-crowds-for-dummies-cheat-sheet.html

I'd go with 110 pieces. of Leg and thigh cuts. Instead of weight.
And maybe a Lebanese/Greek style lemon chicken with the skin on for the recipe.
This would also give you a paring for a other Greek/middle eastern dishes. Humus...pita bread, Little 'kibbe/Kafta' type meat balls. Yogurt dip--tzatziki .
Tabbouleh (made with quinoa) and feta cheese on the side for the vegan veggie guests and does double bonus for glutin free folks---serve leafs of endive to make fingerfood friendly. With the feta on the side. And a bottle of good olive oil to drizel for extra flavor..and salt dishes.

It also depends on what else is being served and whether it's for a light lunch or hefty dinner.

Are you able to provide any additional info, like how it will be prepared and in what context it will be served?

It'll be baked and I'll be using leg and thigh pieces.
