How to Make 4 Ingredient Chicken Salad

There are plenty of extras you can add to this chicken salad, depending on your tastes. That said, to make a delicious chicken salad sandwich, you only need to have four.

Step 1: Remove the chicken breast from the rotisserie chicken. Shred the chicken and add it to a bowl.

Step 2: Roughly chop grapes and dill and add them to the chicken.

Step 3: Add mayonnaise and stir until well combined—season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 4: Cover the bowl and chill the chicken salad mixture in the refrigerator for about an hour if you have time.

When ready to eat, serve with crackers or on a croissant to make a chicken salad sandwich. Enjoy!

Notes

Optional: Add 1/8 to 1/4 c diced red onion to taste for a burst of flavor. 

The chicken salad gets better with time. I recommend letting it chill for an hour or two before eating. 

Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
