Yummy Chicken Salad for Sandwiches image

Ok, this recipe is inspired by a sandwich I'd eaten at Togo's sandwich shop. The toasted almonds in the salad really set it off! The measurements are approximated as i just throw everything together and add mayo little by little to taste. I HATE goopy salads, so I use just enough to cover the chicken, but not make it goopy.

Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 chicken breasts
olive oil flavored cooking spray
salt and pepper
1/2 cup sliced almonds
2 celery ribs, chopped
1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced then chopped
3 tablespoons whole grain mustard
1 cup mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Preheat oven broiler.
  • Spray the chicken breasts with olive oil spray and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Broil the chicken breasts for 7 minutes on each side or until cooked through. (can BBQ if you prefer).
  • Chop chicken breasts and put in refrigerator to cool.
  • While oven is still hot, spread your almond flakes on a cookie sheet and toast on the broiling rack. Please keep an eye on them because they toast quickly, and you dont want burnt almonds.
  • Once the chicken is cooled, mix in the almonds, celery, onion, mustard and mayo.
  • You can either put the salad straight onto your choice of bread and add whatever you like on your sandwiches or can be eaten out of iceburg lettuce leaves for a no carb version.
