Drain it and dry it well with a paper towel before adding it to the bowl. It takes away some of the harsh flavor of the onion and makes it more digestible. I like to soak my chopped red onion in cold water for 20 minutes before adding it to the salad. You will need some mayonnaise – not as much as a lot of other recipes, but it’s important to hold the salad together. Once you have the chicken, the rest of the ingredients are plain and simple.
#CHICKEN SALAD RECIPE HOW TO#
You’ll find instructions on how to do that here. If you don’t have leftover cooked chicken, however, you could also quickly air fry some chicken breasts.
That would be one way to ensure you have the most important ingredient – cooked chicken. This chicken salad is so tasty, in fact, that you might want to roast a chicken just so you can have leftovers to make it. If you happen to have leftover chicken, this is hands down one of the best ways to use it up. This chicken salad has only a few ingredients, and by using a food processor to chop the chicken, this recipe goes right to the top of the “easy-to-make” list. None of these variations measure up to this one. I’ve had so many variations of chicken salad in my life – with grapes, with pecans, with lots of mayonnaise, with just a touch of mayonnaise, with yogurt instead of mayonnaise, with herbs, with honey, with pickle juice. This chicken salad recipe happens to be the perfect example.
Sometimes the best things in life are the simple things, the easy things, the things you don’t over-complicate.
