Rotisserie Chicken

If you are in a time crunch and you have a good market (such as Fresh Market) that you can swing by on the way home - I highly recommend you letting them do the cooking.

Butter Garlic Rotisserie chicken




Juicy Fruit Salad

Even Hextall enjoys being offered a bit of the grape......



Plated up with sugar snap peas and a rosemary salt sourdough bread we bought at The Fresh Market




Leftover chicken almost always becomes soup. The only exception is if it's chicken salad we're craving. So, for this soup, let's start by simmering some chopped carrot, celery, garlic, onion and a few mushrooms in a bit of olive oil and a tablespoon of butter.



This is what we have for lunch almost every week day at work. Homemade soup, conjoured from all leftovers...this time it's from the rotisserie chicken.



Depending on how the chicken is cooked, the flavor of our soups is usually different.
It's a healthy lunch. We pair it with yogurt and follow up by a short walk.

If only my sweet tooth didn't create chaos with cravings....we'd be exceptionally thin. Haha

Cheers!

  2. We had a rotisserie chicken for dinner one night in Spain ... they just seem to do them better - a quartered lemon and some whole garlic cloves stuck up it's bottom and basted with paprika AND what a difference!! Leftovers for soup, nice but what leftovers ;o)
