Pesto Chicken Salad with olives and peas is so delicious and this is the perfect low-carb salad to make with leftover rotisserie chicken! And basil pesto fans will swoon over this tasty chicken salad idea!
I love to buy those packs of rotisserie chicken breast from Costco and use it to make this delicious Pesto Chicken Salad that’s so delicious any time of year! And I think salads like this are extra great when it’s really hot and you don’t want to turn on the stove.
And we loved this recipe that has leftover chicken, peas, black olives, and an easy dressing made with mayo, basil pesto, and lemon juice! You can use the Kirkland Basil Pesto from Costco too, if you don’t have fresh basil. If you like these ingredients I urge you to make this salad right away! And if you’re a basil pesto fan I bet you’ll make it over and over.
