Instructions
Preparing your Flavor-Packed Dill Pickle Chicken Salad can be quick and simple with these steps:
1. Cook Chicken: If not using rotisserie chicken, cook and shred your chicken breast in advance. Let it cool before mixing.
2. Chop Ingredients: Dice the dill pickles, red onion, and celery into small pieces.
3. Combine Vegetables: In a large bowl, mix together the diced pickles, chopped onion, and diced celery.
4. Prepare Dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, dill weed, and lemon juice.
5. Mix Together: Add the cooked chicken to the vegetable mixture. Pour the dressing over the top and mix until everything is well combined.
6. Season: Add salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting according to your preference.
7. Chill: For the best flavor, refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
8. Serve: Give it a final stir and serve in your chosen way—on greens, in a sandwich, or in a lettuce wrap.
By following these straightforward steps, you’ll have a delicious and satisfying salad ready to enjoy!
