Chicken
Make sure the Chicken is completely cool before mixing it with the Sauces and remaining ingredients. Use rotisserie chicken for ease or any cooked chicken you like in this recipe. Try Indian Chicken Salad with Avocado Green Chutney Dressing or Buttermilk Roast Chicken. Shred or cut the Chicken to the size you like but don't make the pieces too large.Wraps
As tempting as it is, don’t add too much filling to the wraps. I can’t tell you the number of times I have done it. The wraps just end up falling apart.Cook Seam Side Down
Cook seam side down to begin with and hold them or put some weight on top of them.Storage
Fridge
This chicken salad will last up to 3 - 5 days in the fridge. The wraps made up will also keep for the same length of time.Freezer
The Chicken salad will keep well for up to 3 months in the freezer in an airtight container. To use, allow the chicken to defrost or reheat gently in the fridge or microwave. Add sauces and salad to wrap and continue with the rest of the recipe.Nutrition
