Smoky Chipotle Chicken Salad Recipe

To make your own poached chicken breasts for this recipe, see the note below the recipe. Otherwise, if you shred the breasts and thighs of a purchased rotisserie chicken you should end up with about the right amount for this recipe. If we use rotisserie chicken for a chicken salad, we simmer the bones, skin, and wings in some less-sodium chicken broth to make an enriched stock to use later in a soup. This chicken salad is great in a deli roll or piled on top of a salad. It will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.
