Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breasts Shredded or chopped into cubes. You can use rotisserie chicken, cooked chicken, or roast your own chicken breasts.
  • ½ cup mayo
  • 1 celery stalk Finely chopped
  • ¼ cup finely chopped onions Add more/adjust to taste as necessary.
  • ¼ cup pickle relish I used sweet relish. Use what you prefer.
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • croissants

Instructions

  • Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl and stir. Taste repeatedly and adjust the spices to suit your taste.
  • Serve chilled or warm on croissants.

Notes

  • Feel free to add cooked, boiled eggs to the salad.
  • When using rotisserie chicken, I remove the skin from the breasts. You can leave it if you wish.
  • The consistency of this chicken salad is thick and creamy. If you like a really creamy salad, add additional mayo.
  • If you are looking to make the recipe with no mayo, use plain Greek yogurt or sour cream instead.
  • Leftover chicken salad will get watery as it absorbs the moisture from the salad ingredients. You can drain the excess water and give the salad a stir.
