Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad Guide
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Toast the Pecans (The Flavor Booster)
- Place the chopped pecans in a dry skillet over medium-low heat.
- Stir frequently for 3–5 minutes until they become fragrant and darken slightly.
- Crucial step: Immediately transfer them to a plate to cool. If you leave them in the hot pan, they will continue to cook and might burn!
2. Prep the Base
- Remove the skin and bones from your rotisserie chicken. Shred the meat with two forks or cut it into bite-sized cubes (shredded tends to hold the dressing better).
- Finely dice the celery and thinly slice the green onions.
