Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs. cooked chicken breast shredded
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 2 tsp. lemon juice
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Instructions
 

  • Start by cooking 2 pounds of chicken breast. You can use either boneless, skinless chicken breast or bone-in chicken breast, whichever you prefer. You can cook the chicken breast by boiling, baking, or grilling it. Make sure to cook it thoroughly until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Once the chicken breast is fully cooked, let it cool for a few minutes before shredding it with a fork or your hands. The chicken should be shredded into small, bite-sized pieces.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, celery, green onions, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. Mix everything together until it's well-combined.
  • In a larger mixing bowl, add the shredded chicken breast and the prepared dressing. Mix everything together until the chicken is fully coated with the dressing.
  • Once the chicken and dressing are fully combined, cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. This will allow the flavors to meld together and for the chicken salad to become chilled.
  • After the chicken salad has been chilled, it's ready to be served. You can serve it as a sandwich, on a bed of greens, or as a side dish. Enjoy!
