- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Notes
- Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. The freshness will fade over time, but it stays tasty.
- Freezing: It’s best not to freeze this salad, as the texture of the chicken and the dressing can change once thawed.
- Pairing: Consider serving this salad with a side of crusty bread or in a sandwich for a delicious meal.
- Variations: Try adding fruits like grapes or apples for a sweet twist or herbs like dill for a fresh flavor.
