Notes

*Cooked Chicken: this can be leftover chicken, roast, grilled, rotisserie or shredded chicken. For extra amazing flavor make a double batch of the peanut dressing and use it as a marinade.

Thai Peanut Dressing: this is the BEST peanut sauce! I always make a double batch, because it is great on everything.
