01 -

The chili crisp brings this incredible heat and crunch that makes regular chicken salad feel downright sleepy
Its the perfect make-ahead lunch that actually gets better after a few hours in the fridge

02 -

The chicken salad tastes infinitely better after it rests for at least an hour in the refrigerator
Toast your bread even if you think you dont like toasted sandwiches, it prevents sogginess completely

03 -

Shred your chicken while its still slightly warm, it absorbs the dressing much better
Let the assembled sandwiches sit for 5 minutes before eating so flavors can mingle
