One whole rotisserie chicken, four sides, four rolls and a big container of dipping sauce: the Swiss Chalet family pack is dinner for four with almost no planning. This version warms a rotisserie chicken in the oven and builds the sides from scratch while it heats. Prefer to cook your own bird? Roast one with our Swiss Chalet chicken marinade instead.

Best for: busy weeknights and family dinners · Pairs with: our Swiss Chalet sauce

The short version

  • Chicken: 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes to warm a rotisserie chicken through.
  • Sides: mashed potatoes, coleslaw, corn on the cob and macaroni and cheese, one portion each per person.
  • Order of work: start the potatoes first (15 to 20 minutes), then the corn (5 to 7 minutes), then the macaroni.

💡 Chef's tip

Make the coleslaw first and chill it. It only needs tossing, and it keeps the stovetop free for the hot sides.

Frequently asked questions

  • Can I use a store-bought rotisserie chicken?

    Yes, that is what this recipe assumes. Warm it at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes before slicing.

  • Can I make the sides ahead?

    The coleslaw can be made ahead and chilled until serving. The potatoes, corn and macaroni are best cooked fresh.
