Any Ideas On What To Do With My Smoked Chicken?

DP bought a smoker this week and wanted to test it out. Ribs and whole chicken were on sale. I rubbbed the ribs with oriental 5 spice flour and salt, and we used the 3-2-1 rule (three hours on the grill at 220 degrees with the rub, 2 hours in aluminum foil and 1 hour with basting a sauce out of the foil). I prepped the 5 lb. chicken (cost $5) with lemon juice and whole garlic and asked him please not to put a sauce on it. Amazingly, he didn't.

The ribs were very good, but the chicken is out of this world! Does anyone have ideas about how to use the rest of my smoked chicken? There's quite a bit left over. (Can't do quinoa, BTW.)

We smoked a butternut squash too. Yum! (Have leftovers of that too.)

I would appreciate any/all recipe ideas. The only thing I can think of is salads, and I'm getting tired of salads.

Pizza in some form? Maybe smoked Gouda or feta with moz? Tacos? Or nachos? Put chicken, with tomatoes, red pep, smoke squash, avocado, etc on soft corn tortillas. Or spray corn tortillas with oil and bake at 350 until crunchy, then top. Cream sauce on pasta. Had something like this once cream sauce, corn, red pepper on pasta ( something made it spicy) Rice,black beans, salsa, etc. Pretty much anything you would do with chicken or ham. just cut up and eat with cheese and crackers. On rice cakes with spinach leaves and a bit of salad dressing.

Now I want a smoked chicken!

Edit: couldn't see what you can't have when typing. Omit the corn and the cheese. The chicken should have enough flavor.

I think I'm ready for a corn challenge! (I haven't updated my tag, I actually can have dairy now.) Thank you for your suggestions, they sound yummy! :)

Well...Drats! I thought maybe I was going to have to eat the chicken for you!

Actually, I have grilled chicken from last night. We are having BBQ chicken pizza - use a tomato spicy BBQ sauce in place of marinara.

Smoked chicken is great in dishes such as jambalaya. Why not chicken pot pie or chicken and dumplings or Chicken a la King? There are gluten-free versions. Or perhaps dice, add to some aioli with perhaps smoked paprika and make an interesting chicken salad (sandwich). Oooooh....how about chicken rillettes? YUM. White chicken chili, mole negro, chicken gumbo, quesidillas, or chicken ragout on creamy polenta would work well. Lastly, creamed chicken with mushroom duxelles on toast (if you can find a decent bread, that is). Wait - one more. Shred it like pulled pork - add some mango puree to the sauce for a slightly sweet but delicious flavour.

How is your butternut squash flavoured? You can puree it to make soup or if you are feeling like making pasta, it makes a fabulous filling with fresh sage and butter sauce. Or how about adding it to risotto? I just love butternut squash risotto. You can also puree it and sprinkle with pepitas and some interesting exotic spices. Or maybe make an infused oil (i.e. garlic and sage) and drizzle over it.

Lightly saute 1/4 cup onion and 2T chopped green pepper. Add a box of Pacific condensed cream of mushroom soup, chopped chicken, a little pimento, salt & pepper. Serve this over canned or fresh steamed asparagus. It's also good over toast. With a fruit salad, this makes a good, quick meal. Even non-gluten-free husband likes it.

Thank you so much for the great ideas, Karen, Love2Travel, and mbrooks!

You're making me hungry!

And Karen, love the new look (American Flag), and your sense of humor! gluten-free Sista, I'd deliver smoked chicken if you were in my 'hood!

I made the sauce for the ribs the night before in my crockpot. I guess it's good because I asked DP if he minded if I gave our good friends a jar of it (jelly jar, mind you) and he said "NO, we're keeping that".

The smoker was on sale for $50 and some change at Home Depot. Since we can cook out nearly year round I think it was a worthy purchase. My compadre loves to watch sports and grill on the weekend.

I found some delectable recipes for smoked fish and shrimp on the internet. And for stuffed poblano peppers with chicken and smoked gouda cheese. I'm thinking since I have smoked chicken I should use a creamy mexican cheese.

I have fresh asparagus, brooks, so I'm all over your recipe.

Love, I had to laugh because I flavored the squash with balsamic syrup, minced onion and s&p. It was delicious. I'm looking forward to researching your menu suggestions.

Thanks again, everyone. :D

      Are they close to a drug that will help celiacs with cross contamination

      By kate g · Posted

      Ive read articles that there is stage 2 research being conducted for drugs that will limit damage to celiacs through cross contamination- how close are they to this will there be enough funding to create a mainstream drug?

      Celiac pain relief

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Karmmacalling I'm very sorry to hear you are feeling so unwell.  Can you tell us exactly what sort of pain you are experiencing and where the pain is?  Is it your lower abdomen, upper abdomen etc?  Do you have any other symptoms? Cristiana

      How many people here are aware that there are 9 types of gluten that Celiacs should be aware of?

      By trents · Posted

      The NIH article you link actually supports what I have been trying to explain to you: "Celiac disease (celiac disease) is an autoimmune-mediated enteropathy triggered by dietary gluten in genetically prone individuals. The current treatment for celiac disease is a strict lifelong gluten-free diet. However, in some celiac disease patients following a strict gluten-free diet, the symptoms do not remit. These cases may be refractory celiac disease or due to gluten contamination; however, the lack of response could be related to other dietary ingredients, such as maize, which is one of the most common alternatives to wheat used in the gluten-free diet. In some celiac disease patients, as a rare event, peptides from maize prolamins could induce a celiac-like immune response by similar or alternative pathogenic mechanisms to those used by wheat gluten peptides. This is supported by several shared features between wheat and maize prolamins and by some experimental results. Given that gluten peptides induce an immune response of the intestinal mucosa both in vivo and in vitro, peptides from maize prolamins could also be tested to determine whether they also induce a cellular immune response. Hypothetically, maize prolamins could be harmful for a very limited subgroup of celiac disease patients, especially those that are non-responsive, and if it is confirmed, they should follow, in addition to a gluten-free, a maize-free diet." Notice that those for whom it is suggested to follow a maize-free diet are a "very limited subgroup of celiac disease patients". Please don't try to make your own experience normative for the entire celiac community.  Notice also that the last part of the concluding sentence in the paragraph does not equate a gluten-free diet with a maize-free diet, it actually puts them in juxtaposition to one another. In other words, they are different but for a "limited subgroup of celiac disease patients" they produce the same or a similar reaction. You refer to celiac reactions to cereal grain prolamins as "allergic" reactions and "food sensitivity". For instance, you say, "NIH sees all these grains as in opposition to celiacs, of which I am one and that is science, not any MD with a good memory who overprescribes medications that contain known food allergens in them, of which they have zero knowledge if the patient is in fact allergic to or not, since they failed to do simple 'food sensitivity' testing" and "IF a person wants to get well, they should be the one to determine what grains they are allergic to and what grains they want to leave out, not you. I need to remind you that celiac disease is not an allergy, it is an autoimmune disorder. Neither allergy testing nor food sensitivity testing can be used to diagnose celiac disease. Allergy testing and food sensitivity testing cannot detect the antibodies produced by celiac disease in reaction to gluten ingestion.  You say of me, "You must be one of those who are only gluten intolerant . . ." Gluten intolerance is synonymous with celiac disease. You must be referring to gluten sensitivity or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). Actually, I have been officially diagnosed with celiac disease both by blood antibody testing and by endoscopy/positive biopsy. Reacting to all cereal grain prolamins does not define celiac disease. If you are intent on teaching the truth, please get it straight first.

      Perhaps you would still like to answer the questions I posed on this topic, because that is all I asked. I am curious to know the answers to those questions, I do not care about the background of Dr. Osborne as I am more aware of the situation than you are, and he is also one of the best known authors out there on Celiac disease. But did you even bother to read the three Research Papers I posted by NIH? You must be one of those who are only gluten intolerant and not yet reacting to all glutens aka grains, but I AM one of those who react to ALL the glutens, and again, that is one of the two questions I originally posted on this matter. NIH sees all these grains as in opposition to celiacs, of which I am one and that is science, not any MD with a good memory who overprescribes medications that contain known food allergens in them, of which they have zero knowledge if the patient is in fact allergic to or not, since they failed to do simple 'food sensitivity' testing. I started with the failed FDA explanation of what Gluten Free is and I stayed sick and got even sicker. It wasn't until I came across NIH's papers and went off all grains that I realized that in fact, I am Celiac and reacting to all the glutens. IF a person wants to get well, they should be the one to determine what grains they are allergic to and what grains they want to leave out, not you. Those who are just getting started with learning about grains etc., can take it easy by just being "grain free' and eating a lot of meat, vegetables, etc. or whole foods as God has intended, without buying so called gluten free garbage out there that is making them sick and the whole reason they are not better. I tried the stupid gluten free garbage and it didn't work, and that will make anyone want to give up, it is better to teach the entire truth and let the patient decide, rather than give them misinformation and lies.
