Quick and Classic Chicken Salad

I never knew how simple and tasty chicken salad could be until a friend introduced me to it a few years ago. It is now my go to appetizer for game days or a simple snack. I love to eat it with tortilla chips and it keeps my tummy pretty happy. The best part is- it’s so easy to make!

Ingredients

  • 1 large chicken breast, cooked and shredded

  • 2 bouillon cubes

  • 2 stalks of green onions, chopped

  • 1 stalk of celery, chopped

  • Corn (optional)

  • For the seasoning:
  • 4 tbsp of mayo

  • 1/4 tsp of garlic powder

  • 1/4 tsp of paprika

  • 1/8 tsp of black pepper

  • 1/8 tsp of sea salt

Directions

  • Bring a pot of water to a boil and add 2 cubes of the bouillon (this is really what’s going to give the chicken the savory flavor).
  • Add chicken breasts to pot then lower the temp to medium-high, stirring occasionally. Let the chicken cook for 45 mins or until tender enough to fork through. If the broth starts to get too low where the chicken is sticking to pot, add a little bit of water.
  • While the chicken is boiling, chop up the celery and green onions.
  • When the chicken is cooked, place it on a cutting board and let it cool for a second then shred the chicken by putting a fork through it.
  • Add the shredded chicken to a mixing bowl.
  • Add in mayo and veggies then mix well.
  • Add in seasonings and mix well.
  • Then serve and enjoy!
  • I like to pair this with tortilla chips, which makes for a great appetizer!
