Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, finely chopped
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs, finely chopped
  • 3 stalks celery, finely diced
  • 3 tbsp sweet pickle relish
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. Finely chop the 2 cups cooked chicken breast and 2 hard-boiled eggs into small, pea-sized pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 3 tbsp sweet pickle relish, 1 tsp yellow mustard, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until smooth, about 30 seconds.
  3. Add the chopped chicken, eggs, and 3 stalks finely diced celery to the bowl and fold together with a spatula until evenly coated, about 1 minute.
  4. Scoop onto a croissant, lettuce, or crackers and garnish with a sprinkle of black pepper or thin celery slices.

Notes

For the closest result to the original, chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. If you're using canned chicken, drain it very thoroughly or the dressing will thin out by the next day. Taste for salt after chilling, since cold tends to mute seasoning.
