    Shred it with Red Hot and hidden valley ranch packet for buffalo chicken ....use in a wrap, or a lettuce wrap even lower in cals.
    Can shred also for chicken salad with low fat mayo, celery cranberries onions ,....etc.

    Save the bones in your freezer, and make chicken stock when you have a couple carcasses in there.

    I would start with chicken fajitas. Second day maybe some chicken salad wraps. Third day I'd stick the carcass in a pot of water with some carrots, onions, turnips, seasoning, and some chicken broth and turn it into an epic soup.

    last night i made chicken salad (not with rotisserie chicken but it's still chicken). grey poupon with horseradish instead of mayo, capers and reduced fat crumbled feta and it was quite tasty. so if you have chicken left over try this.

    I just bought one the other day, chopped it up (minus the skin) and made some chicken salad with it. I take plain Greek yogurt, onion poppyseed dressing, chopped almonds, sliced grapes. salt and pepper and mix together. My husband eats as a sandwich and I eat over lettuce. I also love to turn a rotisserie chicken into soup as well.

    Chicken wild rice soup!

    I've used this recipe - http://allrecipes.com/recipe/wild-rice-soup-iii/ to great success before. I make it with the following substitutions: add carrots, reduce butter to 1 Tbsp, use 2% milk (if you use skim, it will be fairly watery), and reduced-sodium chicken broth.

    I see lots of people have recommended something similar, but I'll tell you how my mom used to make burritos with leftover chicken; Shred the chicken up with two forks then put aside, chop an onion and jalapeno pepper (bell if you dont like spicy) into thin strips and chop a garlic clove or two finely and put it in a pan with butter(or low calorie butter flavored spray) then saute until almost soft, add the chicken and cook until veggies are as soft as you like them. Put in flour tortillas (try not to overfill its easy to do!) and serve with re-fried beans on the side (You can mash them up by themselves to avoid extra calories) or you can put the beans in the burrito too. My family doesn't go crazy with burrito dressings, but of course you can add the usual avocado, a sprinkle of lime juice, and salsa even some lettuce for extra veggies.
