Description

This deli-style chicken salad is made with shredded rotisserie chicken and a creamy dressing, perfect for sandwiches or as a salad.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups shredded rotisserie chicken or leftover cooked chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/3 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup pickle relish
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 2 tablespoons pickle juice

  3. Toss everything together to fully mix the ingredients into a creamy, chunky chicken salad.
  4. Serve right away or chill and serve later.

Notes
