Southwestern Chicken Salad Recipe

Recipe By 12 Tomatoes

Chicken salad is one of my favorite uses for leftover chicken, and this particular chicken salad is my favorite way to go about it. It has the same kind of creamy/sweet/crunchy flavor profile going on that you might be accustomed to, but it relies on different ingredients to get there. Its a zesty and delicious combination and makes for a great sandwich, but i love serving it simply atop a bed of lettuce too.
