Tips
- For the chicken, cook on high for 2-3 hours or on low for 3-4 hours.
- When shredding the chicken, you can use tongs to break it apart rather than fully shredding it for varied texture.
- For the fried rice, pre-heat oven to 475 degrees Fahrenheit, then switch to high broil right before adding the rice. Cook time for rice varies (10-25 minutes).
- Store the prepared meals frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, microwave for 4-5 minutes, mix, then microwave for another ~1 minute.
