Reheat cooked chicken while making it juicy and tender, and there are no cooking dishes to wash. My SprawlMart often sells rotisserie chickens, various flavors, 2-1/4 lb each, for $4.00. At that price it is hardly worth buying raw chicken, preparing and cooking it at home. Roasted chicken tends to get dry when it is reheated, though, even in the microwave. I have solved that problem.

Signing UpStep 1Cut up chicken and bag portions for freezing
Needed (also from SprawlMart) in addition to precooked chicken: Quart-size ziptop freezer bags; Uncle Ben's pre-cooked rice, Roasted Chicken flavor; Swanson's low-sodium Chicken Broth (NOT stock).
I buy several chickens, use poultry shears to cut out the backbones, eat those together for one meal fresh. I cut the remainder of each chicken in half along the breastbone, remove each leg and thigh, connected, as one portion. I leave the wings in place, but cut each breast crosswise to make each into two portions, the smaller having the wing attached, the larger not. I am trying to eat more fruit and vegetables these days, so each of the six portions is plenty for a meal for me. I freeze each portion in a one-quart freezer zip bag.

of particular concern is Diethylhexyl adipate added to soft plastics to make them more pliable. i dont wish to end up at either of the extremes you have mentioned (voluntary denny's eater vs eater of shadowless foods), but since this is a site that is visited by many many people (including children and college males who have very little to no cooking experience) i figured it would be a wise idea to at least push forth my concerns about plastic.
if people possess alternative containers that pose absolutely No risk of causing harm while microwaved, i see no reason why they should not utilize these containers instead of ones that May cause harm.
i wouldnt expect a child or broke, lazy college male student to start reading the fine print on their plastic ware before throwing stuff together and tossing it in the microwave
