For the best guacamole chicken salad, we recommend using rotisserie chicken. It's already cooked and seasoned, making it a time-saver and flavor booster.
Fresh Guacamole: Use fresh homemade guacamole for this salad. The freshness of the avocados and other ingredients will make a big difference.
Don't forget to season your salad with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. These simple seasonings can elevate the flavors of your salad.
When combining the chicken with the guacamole, gently fold them together. This will keep the chicken from breaking down too much and the guacamole from becoming too mushy.
This salad is versatile and can be served in various ways. Try it in sliced bread, pitas, over baguette slices, or with chips for a delicious meal or snack. We love serving it this way alongside other tasty tips such as Pico De Gallo, Restaurant Style Salsa, or Black Bean Corn Salsa.
If you're planning to serve this later, store the chicken and guacamole separately in the fridge. Combine them just before serving to keep the salad fresh and prevent it from becoming soggy.
If you find your salad too thick or a bit dry, you can add a little lime juice or some extra guacamole to moisten it.
