What To Do With Leftover Roasted Chicken

So I promised a small recipe on what to do with your leftover roasted chicken.

The little picnic cum day trip to regional Victoria to eat your leftover chicken is of course, optional :)

Leftover Roasted Chicken Filling

---------------------------------------

Ingredients:

-------------

salad cream/mayo - japanese or otherwise, to taste

ABC sambal, to taste

juice from a lemon, to taste

freshly ground pepper, to taste

Method:

--------

1) Mix everything together till consistency and taste to your liking. Just remember that this will be your sandwich filling so you might want to make it a tad saltier than normal.

2) Sandwich this delicious filling between 2 pieces of bread or do what we did, go on a lovely mini road trip on a gorgeous, sunny, spring day and buy freshly baked baguettes and have a picnic outside!

After each roasted chicken meal, I get as much chicken off the bone as possible, including all the leftover watercress/salad that went with it. You can even take things a step further by freezing your leftover roasted chicken bones to use to make stock in the future!

Here, I used the Japanese Kewpie mayo but Kraft's Lite Salad Cream works a treat too.

Mix everything till is looks something like this. I know, not really appetising right not but just wait...

I basically just clingwrapped the bowl I made the filling in, wrapped that in aluminium foil and then wrapped the entire thing in a tea towel to keep it nice and cool.

We drove north to Gisbourne and found this lovely spot under a tree.

Hungarian and white loaf baguettes from Bakers Delight and takeaway coffee - yummo!

We also managed to check out some local sights. This is the Memorial Cross at Mount Macedon.

We even managed to get ourselves to Daylesford and Hepburn Springs in the evening (isn't daylight savings phenomenal??)

So I was wondering why Leng took the water bottle out of the car and realised so that it was for us to try the spring water. Urm, it was really carbonated and tasted like unrefined fizzy mineral water - I didn't like it!
