It's no surprise that chicken salad is a firm favourite at family gatherings — after all, what's not to love about this creamy, cool, and crunchy classic?
If you're looking for a lightened-up version of the dish that still packs a flavoured punch, look no further! This healthy chicken salad recipe is as easy to make as it is delicious.
This recipe is perfect for busy weekdays or prepping before a gathering, taking just 10-15 minutes to prepare! What's more, only six ingredients are used, making the salad low in calories.
You'll need the following to make this flavoursome dish:
Rotisserie chicken to leftover chicken, if it's what you have
Almonds or pecans
Celery or lettuce
Onion
Dried cranberries
Greek yoghurt or mayo
If you notice, no amount is listed. That’s perfectly fine! Apportion these ingredients as desired. With that out of the way, all you have to do is mix them all up!
Shred whichever type of chicken you have. Once your chicken is added to the bowl, toss it with the other ingredients for a wonderful salad. To keep the recipe light and nutritious, use non-fat Greek yoghurt, but feel free to switch to whole-food mayonnaise if preferred.
Serve with your favourite bread or crackers, and enjoy!
