A few years ago I went to Zimbabwe alone. I decided to make Leo sr a lot of food that he could reheat after work. One of the things I made were a couple of roasted chickens. Well, he started eating the chicken before I even left! The whole purpose of cooking ahead was defeated.

Roasted chickens are so versatile and save you time. If you are always busy I think keeping one for the days when you are short on time will be handy. I have listed below twenty different ways that you can use roasted chickens. If you do not mind you can even buy a rotisserie chicken at the supermarket.

#1 Salad

Make a salad with vegetables like lettuce, onion, and any other toppings you like such as fruits and cheese. Top with shredded chicken. Toss with a dressing of your choice.

Try this: Chicken, Pasta and Grape Salad

#2 Soup & Stock

I like vegetable soups but if you like to have protein as well then go ahead and add shredded chicken to your soup. Use the leftover bones to make stock. Add some vegetables, herbs  and water and bring to boil.

Try this: Pumpkin and Chicken Soup with Coconut Milk

#3 Curry

Make chicken curry to your taste, the chicken will save you time.

Try this: Thai Chicken Curry

#4 Pizza

Pizza is one of the easiest dishes to make. With roasted chicken and a few other toppings, you can have a meal in a short time.

Try this: BBQ Chicken Naan Pizza

#5 Sandwiches

Make a sandwich with some chicken, tomato, mayo and cucumber. Alternatively use avocados.

#6 Wraps

If you do not like bread then use tortilla wraps instead. For a low-calorie alternative then use lettuce for your wraps.

#7 Stir-Fry

Make a simple stir fry, quickly fry some veggies and then add the shredded chicken and some seasonings of your choice.

#8 Pie

I enjoy making pies from scratch. If I have roasted chicken then the process is even faster.

Try this: Chicken Curry Pie

#9 Pasta

Pasta is one of the simplest this to make. I make it according to directions and toss in some sauce and top it off with some shredded chicken.

#10 Rice Bowl

Make a rice bowl. Top cooked rice with some avocado, shredded chicken, tomatoes and greens.
