This salad is a satisfying early summer meal all by itself or served with some good crusty bread. You can use leftover chicken or roasted deli chicken for convenience, or you can roast seasoned skin-on chicken pieces, skin side up, in a 375°F/190°C convection or 400°F/200°C conventional oven for about 30 minutes.
