Prepare the chicken: Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Boil, grill, or bake the chicken until it is cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (75Β°C). Let it cool slightly and dice into bite-sized pieces.
Boil the potatoes: Peel and cut the potatoes into large chunks. Place the potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let them cool before cutting into smaller pieces.
Cook the eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Drain and transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool. Peel the eggs and chop them into quarters.
Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, parsley, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Assemble the salad: In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken, potatoes, eggs, red onion, and celery. Pour the dressing over the ingredients and gently toss to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Chill and serve: Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve cold as a main dish or a side.
