Moxie Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ I got brave and grilled by myself last night. I always worry about undercooking chicken and it being my first time grilling.... Tasty but DRY. What can I do with the leftover, dry chicken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TammyS Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Shred it and bury it in something saucy, like enchilada sauce, next to black beans, rice, and cheese, rolled up in a flour tortilla. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farrar Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 I agree with the above. Shred it and cook it into a soup, stew, or casserole of your choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Properly cooked, juicy chicken freaks me out and makes me want to gag. Wish you were close by, I have some properly cooked chicken that I grilled (and then couldn't eat) I could trade you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm such a nervous chicken cook! I'm so afraid of making everyone sick that I almost always cook the crud out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanaqui Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Anything with a wet sauce will work - so soup, pot pie, curry, bbq shredded chicken, taquitos, chicken salad, chicken noodle casserole - anything like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katy Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Chicken and dumplings served over rice. The hardest part is pulling it all off the bone and chopping it. When you're done with that, start some rice in the steamer or instant pot. Then in a big pot dump your chopped chicken, add some chicken broth or bullion, a bag of frozen mixed veggies (corn, peas, carrots, & anything else that looks good in the freezer section), any other veggies in your fridge that need to go (an onion, some garlic, the stalks of celery or bell peppers that too soft to eat raw but would still be fine if cooked), salt, pepper, onion powder, a bit of garlic and parsley, a pinch or two of turmeric for color & antioxidants. Bring to a boil (takes about 12 minutes if you pre-microwave the frozen veggies, 20 minutes if you don't. While that's heating up, mix up some Bisquick (gluten free version in my house), but add in some parsley (dried is fine) for color. Drop spoonfuls of the dough into the boiling chicken soup. Try to dunk each segment of dough under the broth as you drop it in. When all of it is in, turn down the burner to simmer (medium -low in my house), put a lid on it, and come back in ten minutes. Spoon a bit of broth over the top of each dumpling (or just turn them over if your whole pan is covered), put the lid back on for another ten minutes. Easy delicious carby goodness that nicely counteracts late spring allergy season symptoms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklyUnicorn Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 soup or trash i hate overcooked chicken, but chopped fine it is tolerable in a soup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktgrok Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 I'm such a nervous chicken cook! I'm so afraid of making everyone sick that I almost always cook the crud out of it. I use a thermometer to cook it to just the right temp...and then won't eat it because I hate the texture at the right temp, lol. Turns out I like it cooked to more like 180 degrees instead of 165.
