Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 1 rotisserie chicken (about 5 cups of pulled chicken)

Vegetables

  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup diced onion

Dressing

  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Remove the meat from the rotisserie chicken and shred or chop it into bite-sized pieces ensuring the pieces are uniform for easy mixing and eating.
  2. Mix dressing: In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, poultry seasoning, and salt. Whisk them together until the mixture is smooth and well blended to create a flavorful dressing base.
  3. Combine ingredients: Add the shredded rotisserie chicken, diced celery, and diced onion to the bowl with the mayonnaise mixture. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing for consistent flavor throughout the salad.
  4. Chill the salad: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the chicken salad for at least 30 minutes. Chilling helps the flavors to meld together and the salad to firm up slightly for better texture when served.

Notes

  • You can substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt for a lighter version.
  • Add chopped fresh herbs like parsley or dill for extra freshness.
  • This salad is ideal for sandwiches, wraps, or served over mixed greens.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
