This is my basic chicken salad recipe. I seldom change it because we really like it, it stores well and is great on a soft roll, toasted bread or along side your favorite green salad.
2 large chicken breasts
1 tsp salt
Cover chicken with water and bring to a boil allowing to simmer slightly covered about 1 hour. Drain and set aside chicken to cool.
Add to the cooled chopped or shredded chicken Equal amounts of Miracle Whip and Mayonnaise, a pinch of salt ,chopped celery and refrigerate. The amount of Miracle Whip and Mayonnaise varies depending on how creamy you would like it. Also you can add A pinch of thyme if you like. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to eat.
Today I topped this yummy chicken salad with sweet relish. You can also add to this recipe grapes, dried cranberries and almonds. It's a basic recipe so add ins will be a wonderful addition. I don't add onion. I feel onion is for tuna salad. Just my opinion. :)
From my kitchen to yours,
