This is a great sandwich filling that they make at the diner in the hospital where I work, but I fancied it up a bit with some green onions and pecans. A great way to use up leftover chicken. Delicious!

I've made this salad with both rotisserie chicken and grilled chicken. Both versions are delicious, but I prefer the grilled chicken.
