How to Freeze Shredded Chicken

If you have leftovers, after you have completed meal prepping, don’t throw away what’s left. Shredded chicken freezes well. Just add the leftovers to a freezer bag and squeeze out any extra air. Be sure to label the bag with the date you froze it.

It’s a good idea to divide the portions into smaller bags so you can defrost the exact amount you need. Shredded chicken thaws much faster than whole pieces, so take out what you need and let it sit over night in the fridge.

Can I Eat Chicken on Keto or a Low Carb Diet?

Chicken is absolutely good for Keto and low carb diets. Chicken offers high amounts of protein while having no carbs. Chicken breasts are very lean and higher in protein than thighs and legs.

Since Keto diets typically eat a moderate amount of protein, it’s a good idea to use both shredded dark and white meat.

Cooking Tips for Shredded Chicken

• Using rotisserie chicken from your local grocery is a great way to save some time without giving up flavor. Be sure to check the ingredients on the label. Some rotisserie chicken has sugar or other ingredients that people on Keto or a low carb diet should try to avoid.
• If you need shredded chicken in a hurry, use an Instant Pot to cook up a batch. You can even cook a whole chicken in minutes with this method.
• Have a little extra time on your hands? Roasted chicken renders such a savory and intense flavor. For a whole chicken, cook it approximately 20 minutes per pound at 350°F. or until internal temp. reaches 165°F. Bone-in roasted chicken has the most flavor, but you can use boneless.
• Boiling chicken ensures you always have juicy shredded chicken. You also end up with homemade, gluten free chicken broth which can be used in many recipes or frozen for later use.
