If it's a girly night I like to make a warm chicken salad. It can either be in a big bowl for everyone to help themselves or individual bowls looks great too. you can prepare the salad earlier & then I just marnate the chicken, cook when ready & add to the salad. Easy, yummy & great when it's warmer.
