Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked chicken breast
- 0.75 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Celery
- 0.25 cup Sweet onion
- 0.25 cup Dill pickle relish
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Start by shredding or chopping the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized chunks. Place it in a large mixing bowl.
Finely dice the celery and sweet onion, ensuring the pieces are small enough to blend well into the chicken salad. Add these into the bowl with the chicken.
Stir in the dill pickle relish to add a tangy burst of flavor to the mix.
In a separate small bowl, combine mayonnaise, salt, black pepper, and granulated sugar. Mix well until evenly blended.
Pour the mayonnaise mixture over the chicken and vegetables. Gently fold everything together to coat evenly without breaking the chicken chunks too much.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add more salt or pepper to your preference.
Refrigerate the chicken salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to marry.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired and serve as a filling for sandwiches, on crackers, or over a bed of fresh greens.
