BBQ Chicken soup





4 cups Chicken stock or broth


1 1/4 C BBQ Chicken diced


1/2 Green pepper, diced


1/c C Corn (frozen or fresh)


2 C Tomatoes diced (fresh or canned)


1/2 med. Onion diced


1 clove Garlic minced


8oz can black beans


1/2 C BBQ sauce


1/2 TB Hot sauce


1/2 TB Molasses


smidgen liquid smoke, optional


Salt and Pepper to taste





Take all ingredients and place in a 12 quart stock pot or crock pot, for best results simmer on low heat for 4 hours stirring occasionally. Soup will get thicker the longer you cook it.





If your in a hurry, cook soup on high heat for one hour stirring frequently. Once the soup comes to a boil be careful not to burn.





Spicy Barbeque Chicken Pizza


If you like spicy foods, you'll love this recipe.





To prepare this leftover barbeque recipe you will need a pre-made pizza crust, spicy barbeque sauce, 2-3 barbequed chicken breasts that have been cut into bite-sized pieces, shredded pepper jack cheese, and jalapeno slices.


Preheat the oven, according to the directions on the pizza crust package and then spread the barbeque sauce onto your pizza. You will only want to use around 录 of a cup. If the pizza is too wet the cheese will slide off. Then top your pizza with as much pepper jack cheese as you want. Next add the chicken and jalapeno slices. You can add as many jalapenos as you can stand. Then bake according to the pizza crust directions and enjoy.





Baked Potatoes Stuffed with Barbequed Chicken


To prepare this leftover barbeque recipe you will need one large baking potato, sour cream, butter, green onions, salt, pepper, and one barbequed chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces.


Bake the potato either in your microwave or in your oven and then prepare the potato as your normally would, adding as much butter, sour cream, green onions, and seasoning as you like. Then top with the reheated barbequed chicken and enjoy.What is a good recipe for leftover barbecue chicken?
Left Over Meal





1 red bell pepper


1yellow bell pepper


1 large onion diced


1 cup instant rice


1 cup chicken stock


1 Tablespoon finely chopped garlic


Salt and pepper to taste


Olive oil


Amount of leftover beef, pork or chicken you have





Clean and chop up red and yellow peppers, dice onion put some olive oil in the pan. Heat oil and add peppers and onion and cook for about 6-7 min stirring every couple of minutes. Then add garlic and cook another 2 minutes. Add the instant rice raw and then the chicken stock and mix in good. Let the temperature in the pan come back to boiling and then turn down the heat as far as you can, put a lid on the frying pan and let go for about 5 minutes. Remove lid and add whatever amount you want with leftover beef, pork or chicken. Let cook and keep stirring it up until the meat is hot add salt and pepper and serve
If you want to make a soup with it, just wash the sauce off and leave the chicken to soak for a half hour or so in warm water.





You could also use the bbq chicken over rice. Just boil rice, slice the chicken and fry it up in a little oil. If you have extra BBQ sauce, you could always put some of that over the rice, too.





You could put the chicken over pasta, or make wraps or sandwiches.





You could just reheat it and eat it, or cut it up and put it on a pizza.





You could even put it in Mac and Cheese! Good luck and enjoy :D
I'd shred it and make sandwiches, Barbeque chicken pizza is also excellent! You can take french bread and use barbeque as the marinara then top it with barbeque chicken and cheddar cheese either microwave it or bake it. Or use a pizza crust.
Shred it up, sauce and all, and make a BBQ pasta salad with chilled penne, red pepper flakes, a little olive oil, bleu cheese, onions, chives and celery.
honestly, I would shred it and make BBQ chicken and ranch wraps or sandwiches toppings are optional





edit Damn Ryan that sounds good! Excellent idea!
