Cook the Chicken:

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pot and allow it to cool slightly. Shred the chicken into small, bite-sized pieces using two forks or your hands.
Prepare the Mayonnaise Sauce:
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a creamy dressing. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice for extra tang.
