Go-To Chopped Chicken Salad

/in /by

GoTo’s. We all have them. GoTo sweats. GoTo Jeans. GoTo T-shirt. And fo sure GoTo recipes. I have some that I have counted on for decades and they never fail. Here is one of my GoTo salads. It is also one of Sadie’s favorites. Chopped chicken salad with chipotle peanut dressing. I’m pretty sure it closely follows one of Bobby Flay’s 1,000’s of recipes he has but I have made it for so long I can’t remember. Since it is warming up ‘round here it seemed like the perfect lunch with a GoTo glass of wine (no specific vineyard…I just GoTo wine a lot).
