35 Easy Leftover Chicken Recipes You'll Make Again and Again

When our time is short but the hunger is too real, we turn to the quick-fix meal. We don't care if it's baked in a casserole dish or thrown into the slow-cooker, as long as it makes our life just a little bit less stressful. And nothing makes a meal easier than leftover chicken—be it rotisserie, smoked, or barbecued.

Just imagine: tomorrow's lunch could be creamy chicken soup, classic chicken salad, or even a melty chicken panini. You can make dinner something delicious and hearty, like our Skillet Chicken Pot Pie, Old-School Chicken Bog, or Slow-Cooker King Ranch Chicken. You'll be mighty impressed by the miracles that can be worked with just a few cups of leftover shredded chicken. (If only we could be as efficient as that Costco rotisserie.) Check out these 35 easy leftover chicken recipes and prepare to be blown away by each of these weeknight warriors.
