Whole roast chickens offer the best value for money as opposed to buying chicken pieces. However, what do you do with the leftovers? The answer is simple, carefully remove all the chicken flesh, scrapping it from the bone, discard any skin and then shred by slicing the dark and light meat into strips and then use them in one of my recipe ideas below.

When the rice is nearly cooked stir in the cooked chicken.
