Step 4. Add the chicken and mushrooms. Turn the heat up to medium and cook for 8-10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Then add the bacon back to the pan and cook for a couple more minutes. 

Step 5 - Make the dressing. Add the dressing ingredients to a small bowl and whisk well to combine.

Step 6 - Make up the chicken salad. Add the pan ingredients to a salad bowl with the spinach and then pour the dressing over the top and mix through.
