#1 Pho

We love making pho with our leftover carcass. Use this Costco Chicken Pho Recipe. It’s so easy and delicious!

#2 Chicken Tacos or Quesadillas

We love grabbing some tortillas and cheese when we get our rotisserie chicken.

It’s so easy to cut or shred chicken and make them into easy tacos and quesadillas. We love making a lime crema (sour cream, lime juice, lime zest, salt, and pepper) and guacamole to accompany the mains.

#3 Chicken Porridge

I love making my WAP (Wet Ass Porridge) with the leftover chicken carcass.

#4 Ginger Rice + Cucumbers

We love taking the carcass and making a broth. Use some of the broth to make a savory rice and add 1″ of ginger to cook the rice. Add some bouillon if needed. Then serve with shredded chicken and cucumbers. It’s SO GOOD!

#5 Salad

Chicken in a salad is an easy idea. We love using a lettuce mix and then adding tomatoes, avocado, and red onions. Choose a dressing of your choice.

#6 Spring Rolls

Spring rolls are an easy way to eat healthy. Simply add veggies and shredded chicken into your spring roll wrapper and roll it up. I typically eat 2 to 3 in one meal.

Use our spring roll peanut dipping sauce recipe.

#7 With Potatoes & Veggies

I love air frying or baking some potatoes and veggies to eat with my chicken.

#8 Air Fry the Skin

Don’t throw the skin away! Separate it from the chicken and air fry it for a crispy snack. I love dipping it in ranch.

#9 Mexican Bowls

#10 Add to Pasta Sauce

I LOVE adding shredded chicken to Alfredo pasta. It’s also great with a lemon butter sauce for those who are more calorie-conscious.

#11 Chicken Tostadas

Chicken tostadas are SO EASY. It’s a great snack or meal for the entire family.

Shred an entire rotisserie chicken, then add mayo (to taste), and a can of mixed veggies (drained). Add salt and pepper to taste. Top onto a crispy toastada shell.

So easy and SO GOOD!

#12 Chicken Nachos

Turn the oven onto 325 F. Fill a tray with tortilla chips then top with shredded chicken, guac, Mexican cheese, beans, sour cream, and hot sauce/salsa.

Pop it into the oven for 12 minutes and enjoy your tasty chicken nachos!

#13 Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Grilled cheese sandwiches are my favorite!

#14 Chicken Noodle Soup

Throw the carcass into a pot, add 2 minced garlic cloves, 5 cups of water, 1 tbsp of Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat for 20 minutes. Remove the bones.

Add 2 stalks diced celery, 1 diced onion, and 2 diced carrots and dry pasta. Cook for 8 minutes and then add shredded chicken at the end. Now you have a delicious chicken noodle soup!

#15 Instant Noodles

I love adding Costco chicken and fresh veggies to any instant noodles I prepare.
