Default Good recipe for leftover chicken

About 2-3 times a month, I buy a rotisserie chicken from the
supermarket. After the meal, there is a lot of chicken left over. I
make sandwiches with it, but would like a little variety.

Can anyone suggest a good recipe to use the leftover chicken in? I am
thinking about a simple casserole or a sauce to pour over rice or
noodles.

My mom used to make a sauce with leftover chicken and either Cream of
Chicken of Cream of Mushroom soup or both. I think she added butter,
too. It was very good, but probably not so healthy.

Any similar, but healthier, alternatives?

Thanks

Cut it up in chunks and saute it with 1 Tbsp of Olive Oil, Red, Green &
yellow bell peppers, and purple onions. After you dip it out on your plate
keeping it bunched together put a slice of Low Fat Monterey Jack cheese over
it and microwave for about 20 seconds. Serve a spinach leaf salad and FF
dressing. You got lots of veggies, protein and calcium, and only one pan to
clean.

Chunk it up for chicken salad: add low fat mayo, diced onions, celery,
apples, and grapes, serve on lettuce leaves.

Make soup: throw the entire carcass and leftover meat in a pot, cover
with water, simmer (along with some onion, celery, and carrots) until
meat is falling off the bone. Discard bones. Adjust flavor of broth, add
more vegies, rice, or noodles.

Make a stir fry: Stir fry vegies, throw the leftover chicken meat in,
add your sauce, eat.

Slice an onion and lightly fry, add a spoon of generic curry powder and
pieces of cold chicken, pour a tin of cocunut milk over and let it reduce to
a thick sauce. Instant creamy chicken curry, serve with boiled rice and a
naan. Takes about 15 mins from start to finish including the rice.

Depending on whether the chicken is just starting to go bad...


Noooooooo....

if not (it is good): I would cut the meat into small cubes
and add mayonnaise. The result is an edible salad type food.


That's a great idea. I should have thought of that myself.

Does anyone have a recipe for chicken salad that uses carrots? I know
most of you just toss stuff in, but I've never had any luck with that.
I need a recipe.

if yes: I would fry it on a frying pan with oil and onions.


....and just how far bad can it be and still do this? ;-)

Do you have a recipe? At least some general guidelines. I never seem
to do well just winging it.

Make soup: throw the entire carcass and leftover meat in a pot, cover
with water, simmer (along with some onion, celery, and carrots) until
meat is falling off the bone. Discard bones. Adjust flavor of broth, add
more vegies, rice, or noodles.


What a great idea -- especially now that winter is coming. Again, do
you have a recipe? I would have no idea how much water or anything
else.

Make a stir fry: Stir fry vegies, throw the leftover chicken meat in,
add your sauce, eat.

I love curry chicken. This is just what I was hoping for. I think
that's enough if a recipe for me to give it a try.

Thanks so much

I want to thank everyone for their ideas. I can't wait to try them
all.

Now, I guess I need a recipe program to keep track of the ideas and,
hopefully, successes. Any suggestions for a good one. I tried several
a few years ago and found them all poorly designed.

It's not advisable to eat meat that has gone bad, especially chicken.
Actually it's a rather disgusting idea.
