Reference figures for a dish as it is commonly cooked — never a measurement of your plate. The range is the honest part: two kitchens make this differently. In the app, a photograph replaces the guess.

Method
4 steps
boil · 10mEggs eight minutes, then cold water.
fry · 14mRashers until properly crisp, then the chicken in the same pan, and both rested.
chop · 10mEverything diced to about the size of a thumbnail — a Cobb is a chopped salad, and pieces you have to cut on the plate defeat it.
finish · 5mLaid out in stripes across the lettuce rather than tossed, with the blue cheese mashed into the oil and a little vinegar for the dressing. Tossed at the table, not before.
Worth knowing
Invented at the Brown Derby in Hollywood in the 1930s, reportedly out of leftovers late at night, and served in stripes ever since.
