How To Make The Perfect Salad With A Rotisserie Chicken
If there is one thing that I think everyone should have in their kitchen at all times... its a rotisserie chicken
Alright, let's cut the fluff and get down to business – Rotisserie Chicken Salad is where it's at. Picture this: juicy, flavorful rotisserie chicken diced up and mingling with fresh veggies like romaine lettuce, red cabbage, and white onions that won't leave you with onion breath for days.
First things first, let's talk grilling corn. Slap on a mixture of olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, then throw that corn on the grill until it's got those sexy grill marks.
Pro Tip: Onions
For a pungent onion flavor, slice against the grain for a stronger flavor and with the grain for a mild taste (see image below). But either way, make sure you rinse your onions to get rid of that *bite*
Now, let's assemble this salad. Toss in those decobbed corn kernels, slice up some green onions for a kick, and drizzle on the Creamy Hot Honey Vinaigrette. This dressing is like a flavor grenade, exploding with tangy, spicy, and creamy vibes.
Dig in and enjoy!
