Questions about Rotisserie chicken drumstick
How much meat do you get from a rotisserie chicken drumstick?
A typical drumstick weighs about 53 g with the bone; the amount you eat is less. Pull the meat from the bone before weighing it for a recipe.
How do you reheat a rotisserie chicken drumstick without drying it out?
Put it in a small ovenproof dish with a spoonful of water or stock, cover with foil and heat at 180 °C until piping hot throughout, usually about 15–20 minutes from chilled. Remove the foil for the last few minutes if you want the skin crisp.
How long does rotisserie chicken drumstick keep in the fridge?
Refrigerate it within two hours of buying or serving, either on the bone or picked off, in a covered container. Eat within three days, or freeze the meat for longer storage.
What can you serve with a rotisserie chicken drumstick?
It works well with roast potatoes, coleslaw, salad or cooked vegetables. Pick the meat from the bone for chicken sandwiches, wraps, or a quick chicken and vegetable soup.
Can you use rotisserie chicken drumstick instead of raw chicken in a recipe?
Yes, but add the cooked meat near the end so it warms through without becoming tough. It suits soups, pasta sauces and casseroles; reduce added salt because rotisserie chicken is often seasoned.
Is rotisserie chicken drumstick fattier with the skin on?
Yes. Chicken drumstick with skin has 12 g fat per 100 g, compared with 6.8 g in rotisserie chicken drumstick; removing the skin lowers the fat you eat.
Is rotisserie chicken drumstick fully cooked when you buy it?
It is sold cooked, so you can eat it cold if it has been kept safely chilled. When reheating, heat it until steaming hot all the way through, especially beside the bone.
Can dogs eat rotisserie chicken drumstick?
Do not give a dog the cooked bone: it can splinter. Plain, boneless chicken meat is a safer occasional treat, but remove the skin and any heavily seasoned coating.
