CLASSIC CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICHES

Steps:

• To bake boneless chicken breasts, preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a baking pan with foil.
• Arrange the chicken on the pan and season lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Bake until the chicken registers 165 F on a food thermometer. Depending on the size and thickness of the boneless chicken breasts, it will take 22 to 30 minutes. Let cool and chop.
• To poach boneless chicken breasts, place chicken in a single layer in a deep skillet or sauté pan.
• If desired, add some herbs and chopped aromatic vegetables, such as onions, garlic, or carrots. Cover the chicken with water (about 1/2 to 1 inch above the chicken breasts) and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pan, and continue cooking for 8 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken pieces.
• Check the chicken breasts with a food thermometer to ensure they are done to at least 165 F. Let cool and chop.
• Once you've cooked the chicken, gather all of the ingredients.
• In a medium bowl, combine the cooked, chopped chicken, onion, celery, and egg. Stir to combine.
• Add 1/3 cup of mayonnaise, the dill pickle relish, salt, and pepper to the chicken. Stir to blend well.
• Add more mayonnaise to moisten, if desired.
• Serve on bread with lettuce and enjoy.
