Make dinner time easy with these 10 Ways to Use Rotisserie Chicken!
It was a few years ago now that I did the Re-Purposing series, this series included meatballs, chili, pork, and bbq chicken. I had anticipated at the time doing more of these post; however, life got in the way. I believe I was due with my daughter at the time and it sort of hit the back burner. I was ask recently if I had considered doing any more of these types of post. I thought this was a great time to start these up again. I’m going to do a different post hopefully weekly but at least a few times a month on ways to use up meats.
I thought for the first one, I would start with ways to use Rotisserie Chicken. I happen to do this a lot. I absolutely HATE cooking chicken, it’s one of my least favorite to cook, but it happens to be one of my favorite to eat. Many nights if I am in a hurry, I will pick up a Rotisserie Chicken at the store and use that for the chicken portion of the meal. I’m sharing with you a few recipes that work well using up Rotisserie Chicken.
The Rotisserie Chicken can also be taken off the bone and frozen in the freezer to use later as well. That makes freezer cooking a breeze.
