It’s the post-Thanksgiving conundrum: what will you do with all that turkey you and your guests couldn’t finish? But even if you decide to take a pass on turkey for one year and make our own garlic roasted chicken instead, you still might have leftovers. Well, never fear. Just pick the chicken off the bones, whip up my leftover chicken salad recipe, and have it the next day. Your mother-in-law will love this one.
