Calories: 266kcal
Ingredients
- 3 cups rotisserie chicken breast (diced or shredded)
- 1 cup mayonnaise (Duke's is recommended)
- 2 Tablespoons sweet onion (finely minced)
- 1 cup red seedless grapes (halved in the middle)
- 8 ounces sliced almonds (toasted)
- 1 Tablespoon fresh dill (minced)
- 1 dash garlic powder (to taste)
- 1 bag mini croissants (optional)
Instructions
- Spread the sliced almonds on a sheet pan or baking sheet. Bake in a 350ºF oven for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they become slightly brown.
- Take almonds out of oven and cool for a few minutes.
- Chop rotisserie chicken into small chunks. If you want smaller pieces of chicken, use a food processor to break it down further.
- Mince onion and fresh dill on a cutting board with a sharp knife. Cut grapes in half.
- Place almonds, chicken, onion, fresh dill and grapes in a large mixing bowl. Stir in mayonnaise and garlic powder until chicken mixture is creamy and spreadable.
- Stuff spread into rolls, biscuits or croissants, or serve on a bed of mixed greens and arugula for a light and delicious meal.
Notes
- Be careful when toasting the almonds because they can burn quickly. Watch them to make sure they don't get too brown.
- Purchase a plump rotisserie chicken to ensure you have enough meat for this recipe.
- Store leftover chicken salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Follow food safety guidelines and keep it cold at all times.
- Since it's a mayonnaise based food, freezing is not recommended.
