Notes
- If you don't want to use raw chicken try a store-bought rotisserie or pre-cooked grilled. Any leftover cooked chicken would work!
- I used my own all-purpose seasoning salt on the chicken, but even just salt and pepper would work.
- This makes a monstrous serving and is quite filling even though there isn't much to it. Nutritional Information is for the entire recipe, but it is sharable as a side dish too.
