Notes
Because the chicken salad contains mayo, keep it refrigerated and don’t leave it at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
Rotisserie or leftover roasted chicken is great for this recipe. You can also cook up a couple of breasts to use. Check out my Instant Pot Shredded Chicken recipe that can be used in this.
Storage: Store chicken salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
