Notes

  • Rotisserie chicken is a time-saving shortcut for busy weeks. One chicken yields roughly 3–4 cups of shredded meat. Remove the skin if you want to reduce saturated fat. Store shredded chicken in an airtight container and use throughout the week in salads, bowls, wraps, or grain dishes.

  • This method is ideal for batch cooking and meal prep.
