Notes
- This recipe is a great way to use up extra chicken from the night before. You could even use leftover Thanksgiving turkey.
- If you don't want to pre-cook the chicken, dice the chicken and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken to the pot and saute until it's cooked through. Transfer to a bowl and set aside for later. Then lower the heat under the Dutch oven and continue on with the recipe as directed.
