Easy Chicken Salad
This easy chicken salad recipe uses simple everyday ingredients, comes together fast, and makes the most delicious sandwiches!
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1 stick celery chopped small
- 1/2 medium apple chopped small
- 1-2 tablespoons red onion chopped
- For sandwiches: 8 slices bread lettuce, etc.
Instructions
- Prep all ingredients.
- Add the mayo, mustard, lemon juice, parsley, and some salt & pepper to a medium bowl. Stir until smooth.
- Add in the chicken, celery, apple, and red onion. Stir together until combined. Give it a taste and adjust ingredients as needed (e.g. add more salt & pepper).
- Serve in sandwiches/wraps, lettuce wraps, inside an avocado... etc.
Notes
- I used half a Gala apple, but any variety that's not too sweet will work (try Granny Smith or Honeycrisp). Any apple will work, though, if you're ok with more sweetness.
- This recipe will keep for 3-5 days in the fridge.
