The Ultimate Chicken Salad Recipe

This is a family favorite using leftover chicken from other meals. It is a simple recipe that really packs in the flavor. I like to make this a lot in the summer time when it is just too hot to cook.

The Ultimate Chicken Salad Recipe

3-4 c. cooked chicken

1 c. mayonnaise

3 hard boiled eggs

2 T. olive oil

2 T. sweet pickle relish

1 T. dill

1 T. lemon juice

1/2 tsp. onion powder

1/4 tsp. pepper

1/4 tsp. minced garlic

In a medium sized bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice olive oil, the relish, garlic, the onion powder and all the spices. Stir well.

Take your boiled eggs and chop them up and then add them into the bowl of the mayonnaise mixture. Finally, stir in the chopped chicken.

This recipe is so easy to adapt to your own personal tastes. Just add or omit whatever you like. Some other things that could be added include: chopped celery, crumbled bacon, toasted almonds, seedless grapes or even some raisins.

Spoon up the chicken salad and eat it on plain bread; a sliced croissant, or even on some saltine crackers. We have even scooped some up and placed on a large lettuce leaf and topped with a few slices of fresh tomatoes and eaten it that way. No matter how you eat it, it is scrumptious. You will find it hard to stop eating.

Many people keep their chicken salad pretty basic and don't use really any spices or just very few. I implore you to try my recipe and you will be blown away by the flavors and will never fix it another way ever again. Trust me!
