Recipe Tips
The chicken can be boiled, roasted, or even grilled. Do not use fried chicken because it doesn't work well in this salad.Roquefort cheese is also a must. There are variations of this salad that use cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese or none at all.Substitute blue cheese dressing for a low-carb and keto-friendly version.Like any salad, this salad is best enjoyed right away and all at once. If you want to prepare the salad ahead of time, put it together without the dressing and keep it refrigerated. Put the dressing on right before you eat it.
