Smoked Chicken and Pineapple Salad

On a festive table, a smoked chicken and pineapple salad can be the highlight of the menu, especially when served in layers. It’s also easy to prepare for everyday meals. The smoky chicken pairs well with the sweetness of pineapple and the other ingredients, creating a harmonious flavor. The salad will be less calorie-dense if you use chicken breast, and more so if you opt for thighs or drumsticks.
