Super Easy Chicken Salad instructions
- Cook chicken in crockpot on high for 4 hours or on low for 6-8 hours. Make sure chicken cook all the way through and is easily shredded..
- When chicken cools add mayo, celery and garlic salt until mixed well. I use a little less mayo because I like it a little dry..
- Now you're ready to make your sandwich! I just use lettuce and tomato and sometimes Swiss cheese. If you choose you can add red grapes and walnuts!.
If you don't have cooked chicken ready you can always poach a chicken breast on the stove. It's simple, but with lots of flavor. I make it all the time when it's too hot to cook. I just bake the chicken or boil it in broth, then dice it up. I've been looking for good chicken salad recipes, but keep coming up with the standard "grill chicken, slice chicken, put chicken on lettuce." What I want is a good chicken salad sandwich filling that I can turn into an S or E meal, and this looks like exactly.
