Help, am feeling very uninspired - have a fairly decent amount of roast chicken left over - more than enough to feed the 4 of us - but don't feel like a repeat performance of last nights roast. Any ideas for what I could do with it to feed hubby, myself, Miss 8 & Miss 6? ?

Butter Chicken is what I use left overs for. I buy the packet of Home Asian Butter Chicken Spice pack and follow the instructions.

A quick, easy and a really nice way to use cooked chicken, so I hope that helps. :-))

I made a fry up with our leftover chicken last night, and had it with fry bread- yum! Just potatoes, parsnip, carrots the shredded chicken and onion.
Was going to make chicken salad (chicken, mayo, spring onion, cucumber) and have it on thick crusty bread, but the vote was for the fry up. You could make fried rice too, just add the chicken to rice with onions, garlic and mixed veges.

Chicken cacchiotore - cook onions and garlic in olive oil or butter, crush and add a tin of tomatoes along with shredded or chopped chicken, sliced fresh mushrooms and olives (the littlies can pick theirs out or just add to the adults portions) add seasonings and herbs (oregano and basil or any others you fancy) and cook until mushrooms are done but not too mushy. Serve over pasta.

Chicken pizza on pizza bases or pita bread or even mini ones on half buns. Pizza is great for using up any left over roast veges too.
