This is a delicious summer salad! If you have the time, grilling the chicken adds a nice, smoky flavor. Sometimes I add Chinese chow mein noodles for extra crunch and a small can of Mandarin oranges. A bit of crushed pineapple works well too. This is a recipe where you need to keep tasting and adding more to the dressing as needed to suit your taste.
