Recipe Tips
If you have shredded chicken on hand, this takes two minutes to put together. A rotisserie chicken also works.
The salad does benefit from a couple hours in the fridge to marry the flavors.
So put it together in the morning while you're making breakfast and it will be perfect by lunch.
Are you barbecuing this weekend? Throw a couple extra chicken breasts or thighs on the grill for the sandwiches.
I like my salad sandwiches a bit on the dry side, if you like them super moist, you might want a slather of mayo on your sandwich roll.
