Expert Tips

This recipe is great for transforming leftover chicken.
Sambal oelek is a spicy Southeast Asian chile paste made from hot red chile peppers, salt and vinegar. It can be found in the ethnic aisle of your grocery store.
The torn-out bread can be turned into bread crumbs. Tear into small pieces, and mix with 1 teaspoon oil in small bowl; spread on cookie sheet. Toast in 350°F oven 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown. Cool, and store in airtight container.
