Crowdsourcing a dinner question: I made "Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic" last night, but thanks to busy family life all 4+ lbs of chicken thighs had to be turned into leftovers. So: what would you do with a whole lot of cooked chicken thigh meat? (Also the same amount of cooked small potatoes?) - ThreadSky

Ok. LOTTA options here. Pretty much anything that uses chicken. Slice it for a green salad, wrap it and make it into enchiladas, pan fry some carrots and make a roux, get out some puff pastry and make pot pies... sky is the limit

Also, you have about 80% of an indian curry. Just need to whip up a base gravy and toss it with the chicken and spuds.

Oooooh enchiladas are a great idea. Or toss them on some chips with cheese and make nachos.

I like to keep some sort of prepped taco meat on hand for that very purpose. Garlic chicken would go great with that.

But don't sleep on butter chicken!
