So I changed this up some up when I served it so my points are all off. I have these two guys I know who don't regularly get homemade foods - so I split one of the cooked breasts between the two of them with the potatoes, carrots, and other vegetables from the pot.
I carefully scrapped the onion and vegetable pieces off of the second breast and shredded in a separate container for a recipe I'm making later this week.
I then shredded the last two breasts and warmed them in the gravy after all of the vegetables were removed. I ate a scoop full of this shredded chicken over a baked gold potato for dinner. So the question is, how many servings did I really get from this recipe? I'll probably still get 6 servings out of the shredded chicken.
This is a great way to make a dish that is dinner for one night while prepping for another night.
