Or just go straight to Zaycon chicken through my referral link. These are meals my family loves and requests regularly. Over the next few weeks, I’ll share three unbelievably easy and quick meals using this shredded chicken. So how do I use such a huge amount of pre-cooked, frozen chicken? Lots of ways! I use it in my chicken fried rice, chicken salad, tortilla soup, chicken and bacon sub sandwiches, creamy chicken and spinach enchiladas, chicken and black bean burritos, faux alfredo, white chicken chili and more. (MUCH more difficult.) Next time, I’ll either try that again with significantly less chicken in a bag so the frozen chunks are flatter and easier to break, or only put one meal’s worth in a bag so I don’t have to break it apart at all. While this has kept the chicken moist, it has made breaking apart the frozen chicken more difficult. This last time, I had the brilliant idea to fill quart sized bags with shredded chicken and then fill up the remaining space with the broth from the crockpots. Once the chicken is completely cooled (you may need to spread it out on a cookie sheet to help it cool faster), put it in freezer bags. It’s fun, so there’s a real temptation to keep on shreddin’, but you’ll end up with chicken dust if you’re not careful. You’ll have to hold on to the bowl so the handmixer doesn’t get away from you (and to keep chicken from flying everywhere), but just keep moving to an unshredded piece until you’re satisfied with the Level of Shred.

I’ve mentioned this before, but thought it deserved its own post (and video) because it’s just so stinking cool. I cook the chicken on low for 5-6 hours or until cooked through and falling apart easily.

There are definitely some meals that need the meat to NOT be pre-cooked, but so many recipes work great! And as life gets busier as the kids get older (ummm, out of town basketball games?), I pre-cook more and more of my 40 lbs. Thawing it, trimming it, cooking it, draining it, cleaning up the mess. The biggest time-factor in preparing most meals (even the easiest ones) is the meat. That’s kind of dramatic-sounding, but true. If you really want to cook regularly, but feel overwhelmed at the thought, cooking some basic meats ahead of time will change your life.
