US$5 hot rotisserie chicken from Costco is cheaper than a whole raw chicken from grocery outlet. In addition, I have to pay for the electricity and seasoning to cook the chicken.

yeah its one of the cheapest foods out there. are they splurging on rice and rice cookers too?

I have a rice cooker and they're kinda overrated. Do I use it? Yes, but you can always boil water and make rice that way, or even microwaving rice with water can cook it.

Also rotisserie chicken lasts a long time when you break it apart, shred it and freeze it for future recipes. I love to make this Southwest Chicken Skillet from Budget Bytes. Its so filling and the family loves it, I add in sour cream and stir it in at the end.

I'm filipino, a simple rice maker is a staple in my household. We even have rice dispensers
