I love to roast chicken pieces ahead of time, but you can also easily purchase a rotisserie chicken from your local supermarket and use that instead. Either way, this chicken salad is so tasty and can also be adjusted to fit your favorite tastes. We think the addition of seedless grapes, almonds and fresh dill are part of what make this chicken salad so wonderful.
This Best-Ever Chicken Salad is really wonderful. Perfect for incredible chicken salad sandwiches (croissants are great!), or ton top of a lovely bed of green. Either way, you're just going to love this Best-Ever Chicken Salad! Using our Homemade Mayo recipe makes it even better!
