According to MenuCochon: To save time, use pre-cooked chicken and simply sauté it with BBQ sauce. Thoroughly dry the mushrooms before cooking to make them crispy and prevent excess moisture. For better texture, do not mix the salad with dressing until just before serving. The dish can be prepared in advance, except for the final assembly, to preserve the freshness and crunch of the ingredients.
