what all can I do with this ? make it more interesting
I eat half of it as is because they're actually briddy good.But for the rest I like to pull the skin off (reserve this for later) and then pull all the meat off the bones, chop it up and make chicken salad.My go-to for chicken sarrad for a half chook:>just enough mayo to bind it together, not more (maybe 3tbsp)>small amount of diced onion, 1tbsp>small amount of finely diced celery, 1tbsp>1/2 to 1 tsp of lemon pepper>chili flakes if you're into thatNo the fun part is to crisp the skin up in a skillet until a rendered a little crunchy, and then dice it up and use it as garnish on your chicken salad
>>22114070Sounds good
>>22114067take the wingtips, and bones and make stock, use the stock with the meat off the drums and make ramentake chicken breast meat and make kebab/wrap/gyrodeboned thigh can make a sandwich/bread rollcold chicken egg salad (cut up egg, chicken pieces, mayo, red onion, if you want more bulk boil some potato cubes and then add them after they've cooled down)hot chicken egg salad (the same thing as above but you eat it hot, replacing the mayo with a cooked sauce like bearnaise, hollandaise, bechamel or cheese sauce.make a chicken salsa by adding diced chicken to diced up onion, tomato, coriander, chilli, bell pepper (or blend the sauce to make a salsa verde then add the chicken) then eat in tacos, tortillas or with corn chips.get a can of corn, and a can of creamed corn, put it in a pot and simmer it then add chicken to make a cheap chicken corn soupget a can of white beans, cut up sausage, chicken, onion, potato in some stock and make a soup/stew.
>>22114067Ah the old bachelors handbag>>22114085I've been using a pressure cooker to make the stock recipe that went around youtube a while ago. What you're saying actually makes a lot of sense though, its seemed a little extravagant to just put full chicken breasts into the stock pot, alternating what I'm doing and acquiring a couple of carcasses over a couple of days and using the higher collagen parts of the bird while actually eating the meat would work a lot better for me honestly.
>>22114070you call yourself the grinder but you got these fatass chunks of chicken in your roll. fakecels these days
>>22114067Tear off cold chunks of it in front of the refrigerator at 3am.
>>22114103I don't know anyone who would put breasts in. It's the worst part to use for a stock. I wouldn't put thighs in because they're too good. Carcasses and a kilo of whatever the cheapest of drums or wings.
>>22114115Exactly how fat are you?
>>22114136Yeah its this whole thing though. idk like I said I might just start collecting carcass parts over a few days, probably only need two. I tend to break the bones too so that the marrow is accessible. If you haven't seen it the video is pretty cool, he's a guy with a science background that worked for Heston Blumenthal and he really knows his shit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3k20zFlbFfE
>>22114136Is chicken the gayest meat? The breasts are the worst part.
>>22114147no.you are
>>22114143I'm 20 seconds in and this guy is a complete faggot and this video is insanely try hard.I'm still gonna watch it though.
>>22114203I mean he's spruiking his thermometer and some consume so he's trying to make a buck. Just watch like the first 5 minutes then turn it off after the actual stock part because its all shit from there really. But yeah once you adapt it to real life conditions and tweak it a bit here and there its pretty good quality stock with a 90 minute cook time.
>>22114205It's okay I reduced the video down to under 5 minutes by using sponsorblock and setting all his nonsense tangets/jokes/sponsor spots.
>>22114227How'd you go? I have pretty good results with it. Pretty cheap alternative to store bought stock and its much better. I can't get it to go fully solid like that but I don't live in the US so I've pretty much put it down to that, maybe less fat chickens.
>>22114229It's interesting but I don't have an instant pot. I think my sister has one and she's moving soon maybe I can borrow it off her and try it.The consome raft is quite interesting.
>>22114233Its all pretty good stuff honestly. I haven't tried the consume, no real need for it. But yeah I did a batch up earlier today actually. Its a godsend to just do a batch up for a big pot of soup, lasts the week
>>22114067Literally anything you would normally do with chicken. I buy rotisserie chickens from Costco because it's cheaper than buying breasts/thighs/whatever from the grocery store. I just pull the meat off the bones and most commonly use it to make chicken tacos, just throw some seasoning on it and put it in a tortilla with cheese ezpz
>>22114067send your son to school with only these chickens for lunch.
>>22114147Accuses others of being gay while proclaiming their own dislike of breasts.
>>22114067Peel off and shred all the meat and skin, then make some bitching burritos with it. Add scrambled eggs, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, cholula sauce. Maybe some refried beans but I prefer without. Slather wtih greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
If it wasn't so hot I'd say make a tortilla soup with it
>>22114580>If it wasn't so hotStupid sexy chicken
