CHUNKY CHICKEN SALAD



Chunky Chicken Salad image

Simple to prepare chicken salad that I make up for sandwiches. We never have left-over chicken, so I microwave chicken just to make this. Very basic but very good! P.S. Celery is listed as optional because my husband hates it...if I am only making this for him, I leave it out! :)

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 10m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2-2 cups chicken breasts, cooked and cubed into 3/4 inch pieces (see note)
1/8 cup onion, chopped small
1/8 cup celery, chopped small,optional
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
3 -4 tablespoons mayonnaise (I use Hellmann's Light)
paprika
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine mayo, onions, relish and 2 dashes or so of paprika.
  • Add chicken and fold into mayo mixture until well combined.
  • Taste and then add salt and pepper as needed.
  • Chill well and serve over lettuce or on your favorite bread.
  • Note: I microwave 2 boneless chicken breast halves sprinkled with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic powder and onion powder for 5- 6 minutes for this salad.
  • If you are using left-over chicken, you may need to adjust the seasonings in the ingredients list.

PUBLIX CHUNKY CHICKEN SALAD



Publix Chunky Chicken Salad image

I got this a long time ago from the Publix Mayonnaise label. I think it is the same one they used to have in the deli there. This is great to take for potlucks, new moms, or grieving familes. I often double it. This is more of a salad to eat on a bed of greens and not so much to put onto a sandwich although I have put it into a pita before. Preparation time does not include cooking the chicken or carrots. Cooking time is the chilling time.
