Notes

For the best tasting chicken salad, I highly recommend using my Instant Pot Whole Chicken recipe. Fork tender, juicy, and oh so easy!
The Curry Mayo is not only great with this chicken salad but on everything! It takes 5 minutes to make and keeps in the fridge for 10 days. But don't worry, this recipe will come out tasty using regular mayo.
