During these times of staying at home and limiting my trips to the grocery store, we’ve been using up as much as we can in the pantry and from leftovers in the fridge before restocking. So when we had a few pieces of fried chicken left ( shocking in this house because this southern girl loves her fried chicken) I thought why not make fried chicken salad for sandwiches. I’ve made regular chicken salad plenty of times, but never with fried chicken. It was a hit with hubby, who is an avid lover of chicken salad. The crust of the chicken added a nice crunch while the mayonnaise added a nice creaminess.
This takes no time at all to mix together which is a plus when you’re hungry and want something in a hurry.
Here’s what I used:
* cold fried chicken
* mayonnaise
* dried dill; to taste
* celery seed; to taste
* cracked pepper; to taste
* desired sandwich bread
These are the leftover chicken pieces that I used, but use whatever you have on hand.
Chop chicken into bite size pieces and place into a bowl.
Add mayonnaise to taste.
Add seasoning to taste. I used dill, celery seed and cracked pepper…..
Feel free to use any other seasoning that you like in your chicken salad.
Mix well.
Place on desired bread and serve.
Enjoy!
