Recipe Tips
- Prepare Ingredients - When chopping veggies and chicken, we try to keep them about the same size for the best combination of ingredients.
- Make Ahead - Before serving, we recommend allow it to set in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. This allows the ingredients to marinate together for the best flavor and texture.
Variation Ideas
- Chicken - You can substitute the chicken with canned chicken but the texture will be different. Other easy substitutes to make this salad is to make it with leftover chicken, rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken.
- Additions - Feel free to add in more veggies for even more flavor. We suggest tomatoes, bell peppers, radishes, red onion, garlic, scallions and avocado.
- Greek Chicken Salad - For a delicious variation, add in diced kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, fresh cilantro and crumbled feta.
- Spicy Kick - Toss in sliced jalapeños or red chili flakes.
