Notes

Feel free to swap chicken for rotisserie chicken or roasted chickpeas for a vegetarian option. Using fresh lime juice instead of bottled is essential for the best flavor. Customize toppings based on personal preference and enjoy the vibrant colors of the dish. Leftover components can be stored separately for three days, while the dressing can last up to five days.
