Notes

You can also use rotisserie chicken or shredded chicken breast.

You can store in the baking dish covered with foil or in an airtight container for up to 4 days. To reheat oif it's still in it's 8x8 pan, you can heat it in the oven for 10 minutes at 250°F. For quick convenience though, place a large spoonful into a microwavable safe bowl and heat for 30 second intervals until hot.
