Ingredients

Chicken Salad Ingredients

  • 2 cups rotisserie chicken, chopped (skin and bones removed)
  • 1/3 cup finely diced celery
  • 1/3 cup finely diced red onion
  • 1/2 cup baby spinach, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients – rotisserie chicken, celery, red onion, baby spinach, mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, salt, and black pepper. Make sure the chicken is shredded or chopped into bite-sized pieces with skin and bones removed.
  2. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, add the chopped rotisserie chicken, diced celery, diced red onion, and finely chopped baby spinach. Stir to mix the veggies and chicken evenly.
  3. Add Dressing: Add the mayonnaise and Greek yogurt to the bowl. Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper. Stir everything until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the chicken salad is creamy and evenly coated.
  4. Serve or Store: Enjoy immediately as a sandwich filler, with crackers, or in lettuce cups. If not serving immediately, transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days.

Notes

  • How-To Store Chicken Salad: Store in an airtight container in the fridge to keep it fresh for up to 3–4 days.
  • Food Safety: Since it contains chicken, mayonnaise, and Greek yogurt, avoid leaving it out at room temperature for extended periods. Refrigerate promptly after serving.
  • Refreshing Stir: When ready to eat leftover chicken salad, give it a quick stir to recombine the dressing and ingredients for the best taste and texture.
