Harissa, Herb, & Lemon Chicken Salad

This salad came together in my kitchen with some leftover rotisserie chicken I had made the night before; since my family doesn't enjoy leftovers I always try to recreate ones we have into something new. I removed all the chicken skin, and shredded the chicken breasts just by pulling it gently apart. This salad is so easy to make and great way to transform your chicken dinners. We ate this over fresh salad, and also in a grilled corn tortilla (both ways were amazing!!).

3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (white meat)
