Additional recipe notes
You really can use any type of cooked chicken in this dish, I prefer to grill mine but you can also bake it or sear it on the stove top. In a pinch you can even use diced or shredded leftover chicken or rotisserie chicken! You can prepare the individual components of the dish in advance, then just reheat and combine everything when you’re ready to eat.
Storage & reheating safety
For cooked, perishable leftovers, refrigerate within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F), using shallow containers for prompt cooling. Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.
These are general safety limits, not a tested storage or freezing recommendation for this particular dish. USDA leftovers guidance · Safe cooking temperatures
