Leftover Chicken recipes

  Re: (...)
I was just curious what your favorite recipe is for using leftover chicken - or rotissery chicken.

About every two weeks we make beer can chicken on the grill. Easy, affordable family meal and we all love it. We usually cook two chickens. We eat it for lunch, tossed in salads, in chicken enchiladas and one of my favorites is the Chicken Pappardelle with sun-dried tomatoes and the Tomato Broccolini salad from C@H Issue 67 Feb 2008.

Just thought I'd see if anyone had some fun ways to use up the chicken this week!

Hey Jean has a recipe I sent her for her new book. I don't have it here on my home pc just my work pc.

I make a casserole with a roasted chicken, rice, onions peppers and bake the entire thing.

Here's one, from Dr. Gourmet, that I plan to make tonight or tomorrow: Fusilli with Smoked Gouda and Chicken

Also, the Leftover Chicken Croquettes from AllRecipes is one I've used a few times.

Many times, I'll just throw things together and create something new, such as I did for my Tropical Passion Chicken.

Love the stir fry for l/o chicken.

Here's Denise's -
Chicken and Rice Bake

1 roasted chicken, the kind you can buy at the supermarket
2 cups rice (I use Uncle Ben’s Quick rice for this recipe)
2 onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp. dried marjoram
1 tsp. dried basil
2 cans Campbell’s Golden Mushroom soup
14 oz. can diced tomatoes, do not drain
Salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 350°F. In a 4-quart casserole dish, spray with Pam and place rice in the bottom.

Sauté onions until opaque, 5-7 minutes; add garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add herbs and allow the herbs to ‘bloom’ (the residual heat will do this, about 1 minute). While the onions are cooking, shred the chicken and place on the rice. Keep the juice that comes from the chicken and pour in with the chicken. Add the onion and garlic mixture to the rice and chicken.

Next add the soup and tomatoes with their juice to the dish. You may need to add a bit of water, but no more than 1/2 cup. You don’t want it runny, just a thick soup. Season with salt & pepper. Cover and bake for 45 minutes or until the rice is tender.
Note: If you add extra vegetables, you will not need to add the extra water as the moisture they produce while cooking will suffice.

I like your Pasta dish for the leftovers or Robbie's Chicken Pot Pie . That is the best recipe I've ever found for it. As a matter of fact, I've got some stashed in the freezer right now. William requested one for next week. Another is the chicken and leek casserole. In winter I use it for gumbo.

That sounds so good. I'm starting to like that website more and more every time I go there.
