Background: You have had a day. You have had a week. You are tired. You don’t want takeout again, but you just can’t with the kitchen and the dinner and the dishes. This will work, assuming you have made Green Apple Tartar Sauce. Get you some rotisserie chicken and do the two fast moves and prep yourself up for the slow move. I’ll keep the steps simple.
1. Buy two rotisserie chickens.
2. As soon as you get them home, eat the wings, legs, and thighs off them, standing over the sink like the animal that you are.
3. Remove the skin and save for broth.
4. Remove the breasts and chop them up in chunks the size you like in chicken salad.
5. Mix HALf of the breast meat with green apple tartar sauce in one of the lids that the chicken came in. Save the rest for the next move.
6. Cram both chicken carcasses in the other container the chicken came in, put those in the fridge.
7. When you are feeling up to it in the next day, make chicken broth with the carcasses and mirepoix you have in the freezer.
8. Strain into a bowl and add the rest of the chicken and pico de gallo. Reheat in the microwave if necessary. Add stale corn chips crumbs if you’ve got them.
Why It Works
1. I don’t bother doing anything if I bring home roti chix. Sometimes I do the following moves over the next couple of days.
2. I might share, but I’m not making any dishes dirty.
5. Again, not making dishes dirty. If there are vent holes, consider them strainer holes and put a piece of foil down for easier clean up.
3. I eat some of the skin right away, too.
4. I usually pull them off with my hands. I chop them in pieces about a half an inch.
6. They’ll both fit if you try hard enough.
7. What do you mean you don’t have mirepoix in the freezer?
8. What do you mean you don’t have pico? Yes, corn chip crumbs are a great resource.
Mods:
1. You don’t have the energy for mods.
2. Ok swap out the corn chips in the soup for leftover noodles and now you have chicken noodle soup.
3. Fine. Take out the pico and add more mirepoix, then.
4. What do you mean you don’t have mirepoix?
