How bought a stir fry


Cut chicken up and stiry fry with some veggies using Canola or olive oil (very Little)
chicken tacos: taco shells, can of re-fried beans, leftover meat browned in a pan with the beans, olive oil and some taco seasoning (comes in a package) then on the table: shredded lettuce, chopped, tomatoes, grated cheese, salsa, olives, cilantro, avocado.





You don't have to have all those ingredients but you put the chicken in the shells with some re-fried beans on top and let the family take their own toppings.
Maybe make some little burritos...lettuce, salsa, peppers, and the chicken...or chop it up and put it in a salad...Foodnetwork.com is a great website for stuff like that.

If you still have the carcass, remove excess meat, boil carcass for 4 hours with celery, bay leafs, carrots, and a quarted onion. Now, you have a low fat sodium free broth. use your broth, and left over meat, and make a very healthy chicken noodle soup.
Sautee onions, mushrooms, green %26amp; red or yellow bell pepper, garlic in fry pan with evo add a can of tomato sauce or a can of crushed tomatos in fry pan heat till cooked add chicken %26amp; heat through
Make pulled chicken sandwiches. By pulling the extra meat off the carcass and placing it on a slice of bread, adding a slice of tomato, some low-fat mozzarela cheese and a few leaves of baby spinach. Top with another slice of bread %26amp; grill it. You can use and indoor grill (foreman) an toaster oven or a pan just like you would make a grilled cheese... you could also eat it cold. Either way its healthy and delicious!





Enjoy! ;-)
Well I live in Pennsylvania Dutch Country and here everyone likes to eat Chicken Corn Noodle Soup.





Pick your chicken off the bones. Add to broth with celery and onions, maybe a few small diced carrots. When vegetables are just about tender, add noodles to cook. When noodles are tender add a can of drained whole kernel corn to recipe. You may need to add a little chicken base, to your tasting.





Finally ENJOY!!!
Pick the chicken off the bones, add your favorite seasoning and use a little mayonnaise to stir in the chicken into it and make a chicken salad.
