Chef Tips:
- Save Time! Use rotisserie chicken or leftover grilled chicken instead of cooking from scratch.
- Make Ahead: The chicken salad can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container.
- Like an Extra Crunch? Add sliced cucumber, shredded red cabbage, or chopped peanuts.
- Adjust the Heat: Use less curry paste for a milder flavor or add sriracha for extra spice.
- Meal Prep Friendly: Store the chicken salad separately and assemble wraps just before eating to keep them fresh.
