This salad was so easy to make and it turned out so delicious! I used a rotisserie chicken to save time and it worked perfectly. The dressing was the perfect finishing touch.

I'm not usually a fan of curry, but this salad changed my mind! The flavors were so well-balanced and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be adding this to my regular rotation of recipes.
