Fresh Herb Chicken Salad
So today, I decided to buy a store-made rotisserie chicken. My original idea was to use the meat in a pasta and use the carcass for stock. When I realized how much extra celery I would have, I decided on making a couple chicken salad sandwiches. Fresh herbs and minced vegetables give this fresh salad a twist. Adding dill or parmesan to the final product will give it an extra oomph.
Ingredients:
1 cup shredded rotisserie chicken (all ready cooked from supermarket)
