Chicken for One - Saturday 1st August 2015
Approximate $ Savings: $3-10
If you are looking for an easy way to add some chicken to a dish without having to buy and prepare a whole breast, try tinned chicken. Buy the ones in springwater, drain a little and then add to your meal. It goes great into omelette or stir fry(where you tend to get hard lumps of chicken) or any meal where you want fine pieces of chicken. It's perfectly shredded, tastes great and mixes in fantastically (great if you are like me and like each mouthful to be that "perfect ratio" of ingredients). And since it's tinned, there's no waiting for defrosting or worrying about filling up the fridge AND goes on sale much more often than real chicken breast. While it's not worth it if you were trying to make something like butter chicken for 8 people, it's been great for those single portion meals. Yum!
