Instead of chicken breast, I used a rotissori chicken and just shredded it. Then mix with the other chicken stuff and microwave till warm. Turned out great and so much less trouble. I also used Greek Seasoning instead of Grill Seasoning and Italian dried herb mix instead of oregano. We took to the park and loved it!

This chicken is so yummy I sometimes eat it all by itself! I usually serve it inside a pita, instead of as a salad, and my family loves them!
