Classic Chicken Salad (TNT)

Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 6 servings

This is the best chicken salad recipe with simple ingredients and lots of flavor. Serve it as a sandwich, a salad, or a wrap.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chopped chicken or shredded chicken
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 rib celery diced
  • 1 green onion thinly sliced
  • 2 or 3 tablespoons of Ocean Spray Craisins dried cranberries (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon dried dill (optional)

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, add chicken, mayonnaise, celery, green onion, mustard, salt, pepper, and dill if using. Mix well to combine.
  • Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
  • Serve as a sandwich or salad.

Gail's Notes: I like to add about 2 or 3 tbs of Ocean Spray Craisins to this salad and then let it rest in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving. I also like using Brioche Buns for the sandwich version. Yummy!!!

Add sugar to dissolve.

Gail's Notes:  This is my version of Zia's Sweet Italian Dressing that I just made and it is absolutely WONDERFUL!!! It is based on a recipe found here .  Note that I cut the ingredients in half (from the original recipe) because I wanted to make sure it tastes as good as it looks and man, it really does taste like Zia's Sweet Italian Dressing!  I will definitely keep this recipe handy (as I use Zia's dressing f
