Ingredients
  

  • 1 Rotisserie Chicken (about 4-5 cups) cooled + shredded
  • 1 cup toasted chopped pecans
  • 2 cups green grapes sliced in half
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place pecans on baking sheet and cook for 10-12 minutes until fragrant.

  4. Once the pecans are toasted, let cool for a minute or two then add to chicken salad mixture. Combine until very well mixed.
