One Costco rotisserie chicken is the fastest shortcut to a week of high protein meals — no raw chicken to cook, no guessing on seasoning. These recipes all start from shredded rotisserie chicken and each hits 30g+ of protein a serving.
A single Kirkwood rotisserie chicken from Costco gives you about 3-4 cups of shredded meat once you pull it off the bone.
Which is enough for one full recipe below, or two smaller ones split across lunch and dinner.
Most of these keep well in the fridge for 4-5 days, and a good number freeze beautifully for up to 3 months, so buying two or three rotisserie chickens on a big shopping trip can genuinely set up a month of dinners, not just a week.
