Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and place the chicken breasts into the pot.
Reduce the heat to medium and let the chicken simmer for 15–20 minutes, or until fully cooked and no longer pink inside.
Remove the chicken breasts from the pot and allow them to cool completely on a plate. Once cooled, shred the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces using two forks or your hands.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, paprika, white vinegar, honey, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice until smooth and well-combined.
Add the shredded chicken to the bowl and fold it into the dressing until the chicken is fully coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill and allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, sprinkle the chopped parsley over the top for a fresh garnish.
Serve the chilled deviled chicken on a platter, with bread, crackers, or over a bed of lettuce as desired.
