Instructions
Step 1: If using fresh dill, strip it off the stems and rough chop it.
Step 2: Mix half the dill into 3/4 cup mayonnaise and add salt and pepper to taste. Add the chicken in and stir well. Add more mayonnaise if the mixture looks too dry.

Notes
What kind of chicken is best for this recipe? I recommend using boneless, skinless thighs roasted at 400 Fahrenheit. Allow to cool slightly before shredding. But you can use any part of the chicken that you like. If using breasts I recommend following the Brined Seared & Baked Chicken Breast recipe https://cleavercooking.com/brined-seared-baked-chicken-breast/ but season only with salt and pepper.
