Mediterranean Potato Salad With Chicken

This is a wonderful main dish salad that my whole family enjoys. The recipe came from my mother-in-law and it is a summer staple in our house! A very refreshing dish that I like to serve with warm crusty rolls. Great for using up leftover chicken (I've been known to buy a ready-to-eat deli chicken just so I have an excuse to make this!). Enjoy!
