How to Make Apple Mango Chicken Salad

- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper to make the dressing.
- Pour the dressing over the chicken and fruit mixture. Gently toss to combine.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for the best taste!
