How To Make Canned Chicken Taste Great On Its Own
NEWS
By GRETA PANO
Canned chicken tends to have added sodium, which is good for flavor and means there's no need to add more salt. Instead, use minimal ingredients to build flavor.
When using seasonings to build its flavor — be it taco seasoning, Cajun seasoning, furikake, or everything bagel seasoning — start with a little at a time and add more to taste.
You can also use bottled sauces to give the canned chicken a little more bite with no effort. Tabasco, barbecue, and buffalo sauces all make easy additions.
The chicken is nonperishable, so if you're traveling, shelf-stable ingredients are your best bet for the job. For best results, drain the can’s water before seasoning the chicken.
