Looking for easy ways to turn one rotisserie chicken into three totally different dinners? In this video, Nicole transforms this grocery store staple into three comforting, weeknight-friendly meals that definitely don’t feel like leftovers. From a cozy sheet pan chicken pot pie to crispy baked chicken chile tacos and a warm Italian pastina soup, these recipes make the most of one chicken while keeping dinner interesting. She starts with an easy sheet pan chicken pot pie topped with a golden, flaky crust and packed with creamy chicken and vegetables. Then she turns shredded rotisserie chicken into baked chicken chile tacos that are crispy, cheesy, and perfect for a quick dinner. Finally, she makes Italian pastina soup, a simple and comforting bowl filled with tender chicken, tiny pasta, and plenty of cozy flavor.
