I have some left-over chicken that was broiled in barbeque sauce?

Question

I don't want to waste it, but I don't know what to do with it. What kind of creations can I make?

Give me recipes. I don't know how to make chicken salad or any of that kind of stuff.

Answer 1

Make a southwestern style chicken salad sandwich. Chop up a small fresh jalapeno, a small onion, 1/2 stalk celery, fresh cilantro. Debone and shred the leftover chicken and place in bowl with other ingredients. Add mayonaise, salt, pepper and a small amount of brown mustard to taste. Squeeze a little lime juice into the mix, if you like. Mix all these ingredients together and let rest in refrigerator for 30 minutes or more to let the flavors blend. Serve this on a toasted roll with thinly sliced red onion, sliced tomato and green leaf lettuce. This makes an awesome sandwich and it's even better when using smoked chicken. Hope you enjoy!

Answer 2

Make some BBQ chicken wraps. Take the chicken off of the bone, cut it into cubes. Put it into a tortilla wrap with some monteray Jack or other spicy cheese, and some extra BBQ sauce if you have it. Add some lettuce and tomatos, or whatever you like. Eat hot or cold. To heat it, just stick it in the microwave!

Answer 3

The most simple thing to do with it would to cut it up and place the pieces on a salad to make a chicken salad. A little more work and you can make a chicken sandwich by placing it on a bun and adding cheese, onion, tomato, etc, whatever you like. One thing that I like to do is to buy soft taco shells and make quesadias!

In a skillet over medioum heat with a table spoon of oil fry one onion, one green pepper (or any tiype of pepper, if you like it hot add jalepeno, banana...) a finely diced cloze of garlic and cook until the onions start to caramelize (turn golden brown). Add your left over chicken, cut into strips and turn the heat down to simmer and let the chicken warm through. remove from heat.

In a second skillet (or a gridle) place a small amount of oil on the bottom and heat over medium heat. Take a soft taco shell and place a couple of slices of your favorite cheese on and top it with some of the onion, pepper, chicken mixture spreading it over the cheese to resemble a pizza. Sometimes I will add some already cooked bacon on top of that and then some more cheese. Cap it with a second soft taco shell. Carefully place it into the skillet and fry over medium heat, pressing lightly on it every so often to let the cheese "glue" everything together, for about 5 minutes or until the taco shell is browned. Carefull flip over and repeat. As the shell cools it will crisp up, giving you that quesadia crispiness. Continue until you run out of ingredients.

Annother way to use it up is to take a fork and shred the meat, add more BBQ sauce and slightly thin it out with water or tomatoe sauce. You will then have the makings for a pulled chicken sandwich.

Another favorite of mine is to take a piece of pita bread and use it like a pizza crust. add a little more BBQ sauce to the pita for your pizza sauce, top with some chunked or cut or shredded chicken and then veggies (cooked or raw) and cheese or whatever you may like on pizza and then microwave it to heat through and to melt the cheese. Usually only takes 30 seconds or less. May take more if your ingredients are fresh out of the fridge and you haven't reheated them first. This is a family favorite because they are individual size so everyone can make it the way they like it!

I hope you find something you like! Good luck!

Make a BBQ chicken pizza. Just spread some BBQ sauce on a boboli pizza shell (or make your own crust), add the chopped chicken, cheese (monterey jack is nice), and whatever veggies suit your taste.

Its great to pull it (take 2 forks and shred it) if it not already in smaller pieces and put on top of a baked potato with a little sour cream or cheese. Its also got that way on tortilla chip and dressed like nachos.

Answer 10

shred it up and have bbq chicken sandwiches on buns, or you could mix it with a box of velveeta shells and cheese and bake it with a cornbread mix on top.
