Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked diced chicken breasts, cold
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup diced celery (about 2 small)
- 1/3 cup chopped green onions* (about 2)
- 2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise**
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 3/4 tsp lemon zest
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Bread slices or lettuce leaves for serving
Instructions
- Add chicken to a large mixing bowl, pour lemon juice over chicken. Add celery, green onions, parsley, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon zest and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve immediately in bread or lettuce leaves or chill in refrigerator up to 1 day.
Notes
- *Red onion can be substituted in place of green for a stronger flavor if desired.
- *Light mayonnaise can be substituted for a lighter option or substitute 1/4 cup of the mayo with plain Greek yogurt.
- Try it with fresh fruit such as 1 diced apple or 1 cup halved grapes. It's delicious!
- Delicious toppings on the sandwich include lettuce, bacon, tomatoes, and sliced avocados.
- Nutrition includes chicken salad only, no bread no extra toppings.
