Notes
Notes
- Make this faster (and more flavorful) by using a rotisserie chicken.
- I've used sweet pickle relish instead of sweet pickles.
- Swap out your pickles. Dill, spicy, whatever you like!
- If you aren't a Miracle Whip fan, you can use Mayo, but I recommend adding a little tang. You could mix 3/4 cup Mayo and 1/4 cup Dijon.
- You can go totally wild and modify the the entire flavor profile by using a different dressing. Example: 1/4 c. low-sodium soy sauce, 2 tbsp. sesame oil, 2 tbsp. oyster sauce, 1 tsp. chili paste (optional)
