Chicken salad is really easy to make and a great way to use up leftover chicken breast from a whole roasted chicken. You can also poach the chicken in chicken broth (see below) or use my air fryer chicken breast recipe to make this salad.

  • Total Time: 10 minutes
  • Yield: 6 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken works great)
  • â…“ cup light mayo
  • ½ cup chopped celery
  • â…“ cup chopped red onion (or use scallions or chives)
  • 2 tablespoons chicken broth (optional, for moisture)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
  • Black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Throw all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
  2. Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper.
  3. Enjoy on a bed of lettuce, in a wrap, or piled high on bread for a classic sandwich.

Notes

To poach chicken, simply cover chicken breasts in broth, bring to a boil, then simmer for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through (160°F). Shred and use in the recipe.
