    Chicken Potato Salad

    We all love a good potato salad at our BBQs. There are probably hundreds, even thousands of different ways to make potato salad out there on the Internet and in cookbooks. But a Chicken Potato Salad? You don't see that every day.

    The last time I made this Potato Salad was for our last family BBQ. It got rave reviews so I just had to share the recipe with all of you as an idea for your next BBQ. I keep saying BBQ as that is an obvious choice for a BBQ but you can make this delicious side dish anytime you want!

    🐓 How to Handle Raw Chicken

    Leave the chicken in the fridge until ready to use.
    Be careful of dripping juices. Clean up immediately.
    Do not wash raw chicken (which prevents cross-contamination).
    Wash all utensils and cutting boards (if applicable).
    If marinating the chicken, make sure you toss the juices before you cook. Don't ever use the juice from the marinade.
    Wash your hands after handling raw chicken.

      I was not a fan of potato salad until I made this one. It is to die for and I will use this recipe from now on. A keeper in my recipe book.
