Notes

Expert Tip: To toast your own almonds, place single layer onto a baking dish in the oven at 350° F.  Bake for 3 to 4 minutes.  Check every minute until they are toasted.
Refrigerate: After enjoying this delicious hot chicken salad with potato chips, you can store any leftovers in an airtight container. Keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Freeze: Unfortunately, due to the mayonnaise in the recipe, this dish doesn't freeze well. The mayonnaise can separate and change texture when thaw, which can alter the overall quality of the dish.
Reheat Instructions: When you're ready to enjoy your leftover hot chicken salad with potato chips, simply reheat it in a preheated 350°F oven for about 15-20 minutes.
