“I make my mom’s Ecuadorian chicken salad. Cubed boiled peeled potatoes, red bell pepper sliced, red onion sliced, grape or cherry tomatoes halved, frozen peas (nuke them don’t boil them), green olives with pimentos, cilantro or parsley. The dressing is ketchup, olive oil, lemon juice, lime juice, salt and pepper. We serve it with crusty French bread. I don’t have exact measurements I just eyeball it depending on how much chicken I have for how many people I’m serving. If you want to make it spicy I add a few dashes if Tabasco or tapatio. 
“Spinach and chicken lasagna roll ups!”
“I recently discovered this chicken and have been making red chicken enchiladas. My family absolutely loves these. 1 bag yields 3 doz enchiladas.”

Bring to a low boil and cook vegetables till done. Add a pack of Mrs Reams frozen noodles. Add any other spices, salt and pepper. When noodles are cooked, it is done. Can serve it over mashed potatoes.Some have put everything in the crock pot all at once and leave on low for eight hours. I have never.Can also be made on cooktop, much faster than a crock pot.”

BAD REVIEW
“I used to use this for Buffalo chicken dip and things like soups and casseroles, but I’m not a big fan of the texture anymore. It’s kinda rubbery 
“I’m not a fan of this chicken. Very weird texture. If you want some good, quick chicken, I’d recommend the Kirkland canned chicken, it’s awesome!”
“We feel the prepulled has an odd taste and feel to it. LOVE the rotisserie chicken!”
“I prefer the whole ones and pull myself because I like the mixed breast AND dark meat. The pre pulled is only breast meat.”
“It’s not the same chicken though. That stuff is horrible. Straight to the trash. Even the canned chicken was edible.”
“Be careful of the packaged ones, ours were expired”
“Be careful! We got tons of bones in ours.”
“I’ve bought those packages before and they have a lot of gristle in them.”
“I looked at the ingredients of the packaged chicken and the list was to long for my liking”
“Be careful! The hand pulled rotisserie chicken breast is not cooked well! Made my family sick. Just sharing to each their own”
“The hand pulled is not good like the whole chicken.”
“The pre-pulled packages also contain carrageenan in it. Loaded with junk.. 
“I didn’t care for the pulled meat package. Fed it to the dog”
“I’m not a huge fan of the hand pulled chicken. I took one bite and the texture put me off so much I had to throw the rest away. Maybe it’s good for chicken salad but on its own, it’s not for me.”
“The packaged chicken is like rubber. Threw it away.”
“I only bought the pre pulled one once. I thought it tasted funny and had a weird texture.”
“Bought the packaged stuff twice and it is NOT the same.”
“It doesn’t taste the same we didn’t care for it”
“I bought that and found it to not be as good. Didn’t care for it. Tasted like canned chicken”
“I was not a fan of the prepackaged pulled rotisserie chicken. I thought it was slimy and had the texture of processed meat. Hopefully you have better luck.”
“I didn’t care for it. It has a weird texture. I thought it would be the same as just pulling the meat off of their roasted chicken but it’s not. But since you bought it! Curry chicken salad is so good! Just minced some red onion and celery add some curry powder and mayo. And I like to add a little mango chutney that I buy just at the regular Market it just adds a nice sweetness to it. Also you can use the chicken to make great BBQ pulled chicken sandwiches. Just add BBQ sauce to it and a little bit of relish to it it’ll make a great BBQ pulled chicken sandwich! I’m telling you the relish is the key”
“I found it disgusting…”
“Buy the whole chicken and pull the meat yourself. The packaged stuff is processed and has the texture of processed meat.”
“I do not care for it… at all”
“We didn’t enjoy this. I prefer the regular rotisserie chicken and pull the meat apart ourselves.”
“I returned it, did not care for it..”
“I bought it was gross. They even took it off the shelf for awhile.”
“I didn’t care for this. A lot of grissle and made me gag!! Tried to use it in chicken noodle soup.”
“Didn’t like it. Ended up using it as dog treats”
