Chicken Salad Inspired by South Carolina
One of my favorite go tos.
Delicious by itself or on a bed of greens but my favorite is to enjoy this on toasted bread.
To help with prep and cost, I get a rotisserie chicken from my local Co-Op. I can get a pasture raised organic rotisserie chicken for way less than I can get a raw organic pasture raised chicken.
In a bowl I make the sauce,
Apple Cider Vinegar
Stone Ground Mustard
Relish or Chopped Pickles
Garlic Powder
Dried or Fresh Dill
Mayo
Then I chop up,
Chicken (I do one whole chicken)
Celery (I do one head)
Pecans or Almonds
Dried Cranberries
Add these to the bowl and mix it up. The ratio of all the ingredients is up to you, but I like a lot of all of it. The key for me is to get a little of bit of all the textures in each bite.
I love making a huge batch of this salad and having it for many meals on top of lettuce or on toasted bread. It travels really well as a sandwich.
