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! :)

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.

Categories     Salads

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 can(s) 12 1/2 oz. chunky white meat chicken breast, drained
5 medium gherkin pickles, chopped
1/2 medium onion, grated
1/4 c dijon mustard
1 c mayonnaise, or less if desired
4 large eggs, room temperature, (boiled & chopped)
1/2 tsp coarse grated black pepper
1 medium lemon, quartered
lettuce leaves (optional)
1 Tbsp chopped green onion tops, optional
assorted crackers or bread of your choice

Steps:

  • 1. Boil eggs then remove from heat. Let cool, then peel and chop and add to a medium size bowl. Note: I find that if eggs are allowed to come to room temperature before you boil them they are much easier to peel.
  • 2. Chop gherkin pickles and add to same bowl. Grate onion half into bowl as well. More if you prefer. Add DiJon mustard. Note: Grating onion instead of chopping allows you to have the flavor of onions without the big chunky pieces.
  • 3. Add mayonnaise.
  • 4. Drain chicken, and add to bowl.
  • 5. Mix all the ingredients together.Line platter with lettuce leaves, and lemon wedges.
  • 6. Add chicken salad & top with chopped green onions if desired. Add assorted crackers. I like to add fresh squeezed lemon juice on mine.
  • 7. Add your favorite garnish items, sliced Flat Pickles, Red Onions, Fresh Tomato Slices & Lettuce leaves.
  • 8. Serve on your favorite toasted sliced buns with tomato slices, flat pickles, & sliced red onions.

Hg's Sweet 'n Chunky Chicken Salad - Ww Points = 3 image

Hot Chick! Dozens of fat grams in chicken salad = bad news. Crunchy cucumbers, red grapes, and yogurt dressing on the other hand = GREAT additions. Here's HG's guilt-free answer to the notoriously fattening Waldorf chicken salad... HG Tip! If cooking your chicken from scratch, use nonstick spray (not oil) to keep the fat count down. **These short, sweet cucumbers rule in this recipe! But if you can't find 'em, any cucumber will do.
