This is a great chicken salad sandwich; it is loaded with white meat chicken. Most chicken salad uses white meat chicken, we do too. The chicken can be homemade or you can grab a rotisserie chicken at the store for this sandwich.

We like to keep our chicken salad simple with our ingredients, but enough to add a lot of flavor. We use celery and onions and, basically, that is all you need. There are those who prefer adding grapes and walnuts to their chicken salad, and there is nothing wrong with this. By all means, make this your salad and enjoy!

This sandwich can be made with any kind of bread that you like. You can fill some white bread or dark bread with this filling. Maybe you would like a croissant filled with the mixture for a special brunch, or just a scoop-out tomato with some chicken salad.

Ingredients:

  • Chicken- We use white meat. We baked the chicken breasts in the oven with some salt and pepper. You can also use a rotisserie chicken or grill your chicken; just make sure they are not dry.
  • Red Onion- finely chopped red onion, because it gives the salad more color and a pungent flavor.
  • Celery- Chopped celery gives some crunch to the salad.
  • Lemon Juice- It adds a little tang to the salad, plus, it thins out the mayonnaise a little for easier mixing.
  • Salt- To bring out the flavor of the ingredients.
  • Black Pepper- Also for added seasoning to the salad
  • Mayonnaise- A great way to make the chicken and vegetables come together.
  • Bread- We used the cheesecake factory brown bread because it tastes good. You can use croissants, white bread, or bagels; they are all good.
