New York Deli-Style Chicken Salad
This New York Deli-Style Chicken Salad is creamy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with a touch of Dijon, crisp celery, and a light, tangy dressing.
Servings: 4 -6 People
Ingredients
- 2 cooked chicken breasts
- 2-3 stalks celery minced
- 1 small red onion minced
- Kosher salt
- Fresh cracked black pepper
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
- ¼-⅓ cup plain yogurt I use more if it’s Greek style yogurt since it’s thicker
- 2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Kosher salt
- Fresh cracked black pepper
- ½ cup fresh parsley chopped (optional, I use it if I have it)
Instructions
- Tear the breasts once or twice and place in stand mixer bowl. Shred the meat in a stand-mixer until finely shredded, and transfer to a large bowl.
- To the bowl with the chicken, add the celery, onion, mustard, yogurt, mayonnaise, and parsley if using. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Toss to mix completely.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve where it will keep for up to 5-6 days in the fridge.
Notes
Note: I use cold chicken when shredding it in the stand mixer. If I buy rotisserie chicken hot or roast breasts myself, I cool it before proceeding.
