The price and ease of a rotisserie chicken makes chicken creations very attractive in our busy lives. This recipe was shared with me by a very good friend, Betty! Meet Betty:
Ignore the fact that her hubster has on that goofy looking hat – he goes all out to celebrate a holiday! They live in Iowa and we look forward to lake weekends, as well as a few other events throughout the “non boating” season to hang out together. They even come to Chiefs games and are Royals fans – enough said 🙂
I’ll share her recipe, although I don’t have a picture of it – apologies. It’s one of those that I personally think is even better the next day for lunch, leftovers, etc. Hope you enjoy like we have!
