  4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together ½ cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Pour dressing over chicken and peach mixture. Gently toss to combine.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
