  1. This is SO appetizing! I like to use leftover roasted chicken to make salads too. This is for sure a must try.

  2. Same here! That’s how a lazy person eats AND cooks – have the drumsticks & wings for lunch/dinner, and reserve the chicken breast as leftovers for other dishes.

    I like the Asian-twist on this chicken pasta, using red chili and shallots and the soy-sauce, sesame oil dressing.
