This is my favorite way to use leftover chicken. It’s fast. It’s easy. It’s healthy. And it’s sooooooo yummy. Big hit with the family. The only complaint was that I didn’t make more. I served it with steamed broccoli with olive oil and salt. I wish I could have gotten a better picture to show how yummy this really was. But we were all hungry and ate it all before I could get a good one. I am definitely trying to work on taking better photos. Nothing like a nice photo to describe a good meal.
