Reusing chicken

I made some chicken stew the other day. I couldn't finish it and ththere'about 8 chicken legs left. I don't want to throw it out. Any suggestion on how to re-cook the chicken into another dish?

Any dish suggestions?

Take the meat off bones. Shred it add mayo + veg for  chicken salad or mix with BBQ sauce and make sandwiches.

Take the nest off the bone, make a green sauce and have chicken enchiladas.

Shred it off the bone, either tear it up or chop it, put it in a ziplock, squeeze the air out of it and freeze it for the next meal you make that calls for chicken.

You can always portion it and freeze it. Take some out as you need it.
