You guys really liked my lunch. Let’s see if the Chicken Salad Queen herself agrees.
@bethennyfrankel , this one’s for you! 🧡 You have to try this chicken salad or better yet, come to Chicago and I’ll make it for you!
Warm, juicy chicken mixed with
Warm, juicy chicken mixed with crisp celery, red onion, lemon, parsley, a touch of Dijon, and just the right amount of mayo. Let it chill for a few hours and the flavors get even better.
Perfect for sandwiches, pita chips, or eating straight from the bowl.
Pro tip: rotisserie chicken makes it even easier.
I like the chicken to still be slightly warm, I think this helps the dressing absorb into the meat. Once the chicken has cooled, dice into small pieces.
Then add all the ingredients in a large bowl together, mix well, taste for seasoning, put into an airtight container and let sit in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours for all the flavors to marry.
Taste again for seasoning. Use this for chicken salad sandwiches, to add with veggies and pita chips or just eat as is.
You can use the breast meat from a rotisserie chicken to make this even easier.
