Keep Scrolling down. Recipes and links for all the dishes are below... But First...
I am so confused... $5.49 for a fully cooked, fully seasoned Oven Roasted, Rotisserie Chicken. Yet shop in the raw meat department and most raw chickens are at best $8 each and usually far closer to $10. Anyone have an answer???
Me either.
So, I can either rail against the machine, or learn to embrace the beauty that is the $5 chicken!
Below are recipes I have made, and recommend. MORE than 52 (I just can't stop)... a use for the chicken for every playing card in a standard poker deck... Or, for every week in a year.
In fact, if I counted the chicken stock that I make from the bones and bits of pieces hanging off the carcass, I would guess that half of these posts would and could be soups. So, let's make a deal, I will add soups, stews, risotto, rice, things like that that can be made from the stock as a sort of appendix. But with the exception of making a stock as one of the uses, I will not add any soups (unless they actually have the meat from the birds as an ingredient).
If you are just looking for a leftover weeknight dish to make... Or something special, these ideas can be easily adapted for your needs. All have actually been made by me, and the photos you see are the photos I took of the dish. Real food, made by a real person AND YOU CAN MAKE THEM TOO!
Here's my first and MOST important..
A Chicken in Every Pot- Chicken Stock
With the price of store bought chicken stock (and comparing the taste to the cubes), this gets a free chicken and is almost no effort at all.
I started this project a year ago and it has taken on a life of it's own... Lots of folks have looked over the list, several have made suggestions (keep those coming, email me at Contact@eRecipeCards.com if you have a link to a post you would like for me to try.
And of course, if anyone tries one of these, drop me a line and let me know how it comes out.

OK, in no particular order (except for #1)...
#1 A Chicken in Every Pot
Chicken Stock!
I use Chicken Stock in LOTS of dishes. From Rice and Risotto, Soup and even in a few of my mashed potato recipes. By using fresh made (but easily frozen) chicken stock made from the bones, I easily add $3-$4 value in that $5 bird!
#2
So FILLED with garlic I named it twice... Includes a recipe for copy cat "Red Lobster Cheesy Garlic Rolls" that I use as dumplings, A delicious on it's own garlic chicken vegetable soup made double good with the addition of the garlic cheese dumplings! My new favorite recipe... maybe of all time!
#3
A hearty stew, Cajun roots, memories of New Orleans and just about the tastiest Gumbo you have ever had. Perfect as the weather turns colder!
#4
Served over a bed of the almost Fried Rice (see recipe #19), this is a wonderful adaptation of the classic Chinese (but really NYC) dish. Crispy, seasoned and spicy... All done in about 20 minutes!
#5
My favorite salad of all time! Loaded with colors for presentation, but full of mixtures of texture and tastes... Mandarin oranges, Water Chestnuts, Honey Cashews and a sweet TERIYAKI Dressing!
#6
This ain't your standard take out, but it all comes together in about 15 minutes. The DELICIOUS layers of flavors come through in a spectacular way as the sweet pineapple combines with the sour Rice Vinegar all made in just ONE PAN! A Favorite
#7
INSANELY GOOD... Pound for pound, dollar for dollar this one pot meal, easy to make and FAST to make from ingredients already in most cooks' pantries, this dish is as good as it gets for a week night meal.

Seasoned vegetables and rice! One pot meal, ready in less than an hour and better the next day (make plenty for leftovers)!
#11
A MILLION dollar recipe with a two MILLION dollar presentation. LOTS of vegetables soaked in a creamy rich Alfredo sauce with a BEAUTIFUL presentation of flaky buttermilk biscuits!
#12
It started as a copy cat recipe for the Chili's Restaurant classic, evolved into... Well, better is in the taste buds of the beholder, but I LOVED this. Real taste of a Tex Mex Enchilada in a soup... Stew!
#13
Makes a terrific lunch. Made almost completely with left overs, this is WONDERFUL! Every time I make a savory bread pudding I wonder why I don;t make more. And with the addition of the Red Lobster biscuits... WONDERFUL!
#14
Sigh... Such an ugly dish. Brown food with a brown sauce.
BUT home made Chinese Fast Food is so much better than the take out dish. LOADED with nuts and everything comes together in less time than it takes to make the rice! Ugly BUT delicious!
#15
Two recipes in this post and this is my FAVORITE of the Chinese copy cat take out restaurant dishes. The HOT pineapple is what makes this dish amazing. Love the colors and it does not get any easier than this!
#16
A few exotic yet easy to find ingredients makes this soup not only accessible but WONDERFULLY delicious. Hints of Asian cuisine with sweet and mildly spicy flavors. Loaded with vegetables and chicken. LOVE IT!
It's a pretty simple pasta topped with chicken recipe. But the Ricotta sauce adds a little extra tang, sweetness and creaminess to make this a special sauce! There is even a spinach pesto added to really zing it up!
This is my FAVORITE chicken salad recipe. Tart Apples, Sweet Grapes, Savory Onions and Louisiana Spices... It's the best!
#17

The recipe is a bit of a cheat as I used some grilled chicken breasts in place of rotisserie chicken, but easily adapted to the cheap birds!
#19

Is it a salad, Appetizer, Bar Snack or Main Course???
Whichever, it is the best nachos you have ever had!

#21
An expensive gourmet pizza made at home for dimes on the dollar!
The recipe includes my "GO-TO" Pizza Dough recipe! Once you master that, there is just no stopping you from your own weekly at home pizzeria!
#22
It;s a little time consuming as you make a delicious Spanish Rice (recipe link included), and a tropical Pineapple Pico de Gallo (recipe included and top everything with a spicy creamy cheese sauce (yeap, that recipe is included too!), But this may actually be my very favorite use for the beloved rotisserie bird! Worth all of the effort.
Oh BOY did this come together easy and fast. I used refrigerator canned biscuits baked on top of the creamy vegetable laced filling for a "fake" Pot Pie. The sauce is a thick creamy mushroom and about every vegetable I had in the freezer! All less than 30 minutes!
#25
It started out as a quick lunch because the potatoes were on sale. The dish ended up to become a highlight on my "side dish" list. Loved the combination of tastes with the vinaigrette recipe in the post.
#26
It's a sloppy Joe, made of Chicken and made just a touch more healthy with the beans in the mix. I also made this in a slow cooker. So all the work in the morning and ready at my convenience! Oh, and spicy and DELICIOUS!
A ZIPPY alternative to the standard chicken/pasta and red sauce. It's actually a very tasty, VERY easy Macaroni and CHEESE! A new Favorite!

A Grown up savory delicious soup, thick and creamy and Earthy tasting with Italian seasonings, Mushroom based Roux and made hearty with the Rotisserie Chicken!

Easy as could be. I made a Cream of Mushroom base, cooked everything in a crock pot (including the rice!) and warm comforting food. LOTS and LOTS of cheese... YUM!
#33
I made this and served it as the sandwich half of a Soup and Sandwich to brighten up a bowl of leftover soup. BUT, what an amazing breakfast this would make! Made especially easy with a tube of refrigerator biscuits, but it is the taste that will make you want to make again and again. May be the PERFECT use for a rotisserie Chicken!
Now this is a REAL MAN sized quiche, made in a cake form, tall and loaded with flavors. I finish the breakfast idea (although I usually make these for dinner) by replacing the usual pastry crust with a fresh made Hash Brown and Onion Crust!
#35
A great freezable dish, make and serve one today, freeze one for a rainy (or snowy) wintry day! I added a Mashed Potato recipe made with bacon and apples fried in the bacon drippings! Loaded with vegetables, sitting in their own gravy. Delicious Casserole.
#36
"Whatever I have in my fridge Sunday morning rotisserie chicken eggs Benedict inspired open faced sandwich with a quicky easy blender Hollandaise sauce recipe".
A long title, and I could have just said, "Rotisserie Chicken Eggs Benedict", but with the easy fast never fail Hollandaise Sauce recipe and using garlic toast in place of an English Muffin, I just thought the idea of "whatever I have in the fridge" Eggs Benedict made more sense for a title.
#37
This is a BIG SALAD!
Half a head of Romaine Lettuce, topped with Bacon, Peppers, Onions, Egg, of course Chicken, Cheese and even has a recipe for fresh made ZINGY Mustard Vinaigrette dressing!

Nothing like a big hearty bowl of stick to your ribs cheesy CHOWDER on a cold Fall day! Creamy , cheesy, filled with vegetables and meat, hints of heat and warming to the core!

Has nothing to do with the cooking school. Not even French and really not a classic at all (invented in 1967). But with just a bit of leftovers it makes a delicious snack and a great use of a Rotisserie Chicken!!!
#40
A terrific use of just about any chicken salad recipe. I like to use cream cheese for these in place of Mayo.

#41
A DELICIOUS recipe inspired from The Chew TV show, thanks to Carla Hall. I made a few changes just to make it more pantry friendly (cheap), but love the extra citrus flavor to a deconstructed Pot pie meal!

Stick to your ribs soup!

I made these for breakfast, but they would make an incredible appetizer. Mini muffin, single bite serving and simply delicious with a buttermilk popover batter and savory chicken and blue cheese... INCREDIBLE!
This was so easy and fast I even added a Fast and easy Blue Cheese Tomato Soup. But made as a lower calorie lettuce wrap or a low calorie Whole Wheat Tortilla Wrap, these are a winner for one of those days you want to cut back.

Well sure I could just call this Chicken with Feta Creamed Spinach, but really that doesn't do this dish justice. OK, stay with me... For a second, let your imagination run wild... Return to those maddeningly stressful first few months of married life when your spouse would make a last minute phone call letting you know that your new Mother-in-Law was coming for dinner. Sure, after years of marriage you have either fallen in love with her, learned to tolerate her or moved cross country so those phone calls don;t matter any more. But those first few months you cooked to impress like the rest of your married life rested on your skills. This EASY FAST dish would impress.

Chicken Mole made with Guinness Stout

I wanted to dress up breakfast today.
The salty pre-seasoned rotisserie chicken, combined with the sweetness of maple syrup dress up a Sunday morning breakfast nicely. Uses the meat from just one chicken thigh and adds a lot to the taste!
