Ingredients
- 2 grilled chicken breasts cut into thin slices
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground if possible
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup fresh basil
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 stalks celery thinly sliced
- 2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- If your chicken is not cooked, you can sear it in a skillet on medium-high with a tablespoon of oil for 4-6 minutes on each side or roast at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.
- In a food processor, add the salt, pepper, mayonnaise, basil, garlic, and lemon juice and combine until creamy but just a few little pieces of basil show.
- Add the chicken, creamy dressing, celery and Parmesan cheese together in a bowl and stir to combine before serving.
- If possible, refrigerate for an hour or more, the flavors are better as the chicken has some time to soak up the creamy dressing.
