Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 cup shredded cooked chicken, from about 1 large cooked chicken breasts or 2 medium chicken thighs
- 1/4 cup red or green grapes, sliced in half
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon freshly-squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon prepared mayonnaise (I like the Primal Kitchen brand)
Instructions
- Combine the chicken, grapes, dill, lemon juice, and mayonnaise in a medium glass bowl.
- Use a spatula to gently mix the ingredients together, until the chicken is coated with the mayonnaise.
- Serve cold or at room temperature.
Notes
- You can easily double or triple this recipe for additional servings.
- Feel free to add 1/2 cup of chopped celery. If you like spicy flavors, you can also add 1/4 teaspoon of dijon mustard (see my favorite celery substitute or Dijon mustard replacement).
- If you are really short on time, you can buy an already-cooked rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. Just shred the chicken and use it in this clean eating chicken salad. Try to avoid using canned chicken as the flavor won’t be as fresh.
- Don’t worry if you don’t have the exact ingredients that I used. You can always leave out the grapes or the dill, and or substitute a chopped apple and fresh parsley. I also like adding red onion or green onions. Or, try other fresh herbs like cilantro.
- You can also substitute sliced apple for the grapes, if you prefer.
