This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I also added some chopped carrots and celery to the puree for extra flavor.

This dish was absolutely delicious! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the celery root puree was creamy and smooth. I served it with roasted vegetables and a side salad, and it was a perfect meal.
