What way of cooking? Although I wouldn't do it (chicken that is warm doesn't
speak to whether or not it is safe), all you are describing is filling an
insulated container with cooked chicken and dumping some sort of sauce on
top. Pick a sauce that tastes food to you.
Food safety note: Once chicken has cooked, it can be left out for two hours.
If it is going to be any longer than that, you want to hold the chicken
above 142F or cool it to below 41F.
