4 recipes using a store-bought roast chicken
Although delicious just as is (served with a simple salad or mashed potatoes!), we love rotisserie chicken most as a shortcut ingredient to make some of our favourite recipes come together in a flash.
1. Add it to salads

Sliced or chopped rotisserie chicken is perfect for bulking up a lunch or dinner salad. Simply toss it with your favourite salad ingredients, making sure to generously drizzle the dressing over the chicken to prevent it from drying out.

2. Make it the star of a sandwich
Transform slices of leftover chicken into a tasty lunch sandwich by adding a few simple pantry ingredients. Try it paired with tomatoes, sun-dried tomato pesto, and Swiss cheese.

Rotisserie chicken makes a fantastic addition to so many different kinds of soup. It’s also an easy way to breathe new life into dry white meat; the broth from the soup will help add flavour and tenderize it.

4. Toss it with pasta

Shredded chicken is a quick and tasty way to add protein to everyday pasta dishes. Add it to your sauce in the last minutes of cooking and simply heat it through.
