There are so many great meals you can make with a rotisserie chicken. If you are looking for an easy dinner tonight, pick up a chicken from the deli and try one of these rotisserie chicken recipes.
I don’t know why it took me so long to use rotisserie chickens for more than a boring old chicken dinner. The truth is, they are a great solution if you are looking to save money and time on meal prep. I figured out that at the end of the night, my local deli will often mark down the rotisserie chickens. Some delis will put the unsold chickens in the cooler and discount them the next day. Either way, you get a lot of meat for a low price and it’s already cooked and seasoned for you! Nothing could be easier when it comes to creating a meal. So head to your local store, pick up a rotisserie chicken and try one of these easy rotisserie chicken recipes.

I have been cooking whole chickens myself for about 10 years now and am always on the lookout for more recipes using the meat. So I was surprised to see that I didnt have a version of any of these except the broth. Thanks for sharing and making my menu planning a little bit easier this month!
