5UPDATE: If you want to save time, skip step #1 above and buy the readily available roasted chicken from your grocery store. The downside will be that you will have to replace the very flavorful homemade chicken stock with canned stock. Also experiment with the taste by using your favorite seasoning blend in step #2, e.g., Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning.
