Make a yummy chicken salad sandwich for lunch, dinner, or social events. Below is the best chicken salad sandwich recipe.
This is an easy make-ahead recipe. I love knowing a delicious chicken salad is in the fridge, just waiting for me to get home!
Ingredients
- 3 cups shredded Chicken
- ½ cup Celery diced
- ⅓ cup Green Onions thinly sliced
Dressing:
- ½ cup Mayo
- ¼ tsp. Salt
- ¼ tsp. Pepper
- ¼ tsp. Season Salt
- ⅛ tsp. Onion Powder
- 1 ½ tsp Lemon Juice
Make the Dressing:
Add all of the dressing ingredients together into a bowl and mix.
Then, place the bowl in the fridge until you need it.
Prepare the Chicken:
I love using rotisserie chicken in my recipes that call for shredded chicken - it is such an easy and inexpensive way to get it.
Remove the chicken from the bones. You can use both white meat and dark meat.
Put the chicken meat in a bowl and shred it with two forks.
You can pull out your mixer and "mix" the chicken.
It works really well and will shred the chicken super fast.
Add the diced celery, onions, and dressing to the chicken bowl.
Stir until well combined.
If I have time and want to be extra fancy, you can add a cup of sliced grapes and about ½ a cup of cashews.
Yum!
Scoop the chicken salad onto croissants or your favorite rolls.
Add a side of fresh fruit like grapes or apples, and have a wonderful family meal.
Our Baking Essential List
- We use Glass Baking Dishes for baking casseroles. I especially like the dishes with lids because leftovers can be transferred straight to the fridge.
- Silicone Kitchenware is my favorite because they don't scratch my cookware and is easy to clean!
- A Glass Cutting Board is a must to prepare all of those ingredients. We even keep ours on our counter at all times.
- This Knife Set will also become your favorite! The knives cut beautifully, and the hollow design prevents food from sticking to the blade.

This looks so good and this recipe is pretty simple! I'm not a fan of onions so I would probably leave them out and add grapes like you suggested. So yummy!

I love chicken salad! I keep hearing that rotisserie chicken is really cheap and easier to make lots of food with. Our Wal Mart's deli is right next to the entrance so I smell that deliciousness right away, haha. =)

This looks delicious! Rather than using rotisserie, I usually use canned chicken or leftover chicken to make chicken salad, but any way you slice it, this looks like a recipe I need to try. I'm also adding you to my blog's list of CommentLuv enabled sites. 🙂
