    ways to make canned chicken tolerable

    I literally now gag when trying to scarf it down out of the can, and a little mayo, relish, and onions doesn't do the trick anymore, any ideas to make this edible? (i don't eat tuna)

    I dunno, but will you holler at me if anyone gives you a clever idea? I am in the same situation as you. I have used hot sauce for a while, but the texture of the chicken isn't so good. I do go to Sam's Club and buy the hugest bag of chicken breasts I can get, and then George Foreman grill them, cool them off, and eat them with hot sauce. It's better than canned chicken

    I never really eat the stuff anymore but I used to take a tiny bit of olive oil over very high heat, add a little chopped fresh garlic, then throw on some fresh cilanto and then immediately the chicken. Fry it just long enough to kinda char the outside a bit and add maybe a tbsp of lime or lemon juice. (Italian dressing would work too)

    I'd take that and put between a couple slices of toasted Ezekiel bread with some lettuce.

    I add canned chicken to 3 whole eggs and stir well, then microwave that for part of my breakfast, it sort of adds a ham taste to the eggs.

    i find it is easiest to pallet canned chickn if you warm it up first..
    just put a cut on the can lid to let it vent then then throw it in the microwave for 45seconds before opening it
