Two Dishes for Left Over Rotisserie Chicken
Rotisserie chicken is a quick and easy meal for the fam. I know a lot of people use it as a go to, but what to do with the left overs? Here are two easy ideas (also a third option of what to do with the bones!)
Start by peeling all the meat from the bones and skin.
The skin I just discard (not a big fan). The bones however, I freeze with veggie scrapes and use it for homemade chicken broth.
Add all the shredded chicken into a pot.
Add carrots, celery and onion. For this recipe you just throw everything in a pot and walk away.
Add one cup of water and cook for an hour. Basically you are making a broth/ chicken soup.
Once everything has been simmering for about an hour, add tortellinis and cook for another 20 minutes.
You'll end up with a yummy chicken soup!
Instead of the above ingredients, add the chicken to a bowl with a can of black beans and a can of carrots and some onion. You will end up with a yummy Mexican soup! (I garnished with fresh avocado)
