Notes
You can serve the chicken with just about any side, instead of rice try over tortillas, lettuce wraps, mashed potatoes, cauliflower rice, or even sweet potatoes. Experiment and have fun with it!
Leftover crack chicken can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days or in an airtight container in the freezer for 2-3 months.
