Leftover Roast Chicken Meals
A roast chicken is a great meal maker for the whole family. Once roasted you can use the meat for various dishes. I have created three delicious meals, some of which can be taken to work.
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 10 minutes
Makes: 6 servings
Ingredients
1 medium / large roast chicken
Handful of spinach
Black pepper
Half a lime
Half a lemon
2 slices of wholemeal bread
1 beef tomato or 2 tomatoes
1 garlic clove
Method
Carve the chicken how you like.
I have removed the chicken thighs for a meal I enjoyed earlier in the week.
Quick Salad
Slice off a chicken breast and place in a tupperware tub.
Add whatever sides you like. I have added a bunch of fresh spinach.
Coconut Flavoured Lunch
Add a tsp of coconut oil to a frying pan.
Chop the garlic and add to the frying pan, cook for 2 minutes.
Pull the meat off the bones and place in a frying pan along with 1 garlic clove and lemon juice.
Cook over a medium heat.
Once cooked season with black pepper. This works very well with steamed kale.
Quick Sandwich
Pull the chicken thighs off the carcass and gently pull the meat apart.
Butter one slice of bread and place the pulled chicken on the other slice.
Season the chicken with black pepper and a few thyme sprigs.
Add the sliced tomato, top with the other slice of bread and place under the grill for 5 minutes.
Slice in half and enjoy.
