The most amazing chicken salad!
I made chicken in the crockpot last night using Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic sauce and used what I had leftover to make chicken salad and I think this is how I will make my chicken salad from now on! It’s so so good!
Parmesan Garlic seasoned chicken salad:
3 to 4 pieces of thin boneless skinless chicken breast
1 bottle of Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan garlic sauce
1 cup heavy cream
1 tsp Seasoning salt
1 tbsp chicken seasoning
4 tbsp Greek yogurt
1 stalk of celery, finely diced
1/4 cup of diced chives or however much to your liking
Seasoning salt
Cracked black pepper
For the chicken slow cook in the crockpot on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours. This makes the chicken so tender and moist and easy to shred.
To make the chicken salad; shred the chicken. Add 4 tbsp of Greek yogurt, celery, chives and seasonings. Place in the refrigerator to let it chill for 30 minutes to an hour. Serve over a simple salad. I dressed my salad with olive oil, lemon juice, fresh minced garlic, salt and cracked black pepper.
Chicken salad is a classic meal that can be customized in many ways, making it both versatile and delicious. Utilizing leftover chicken cooked in Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic sauce not only saves time but also adds a rich flavor to the dish. To enhance your chicken salad further, consider incorporating additional ingredients like diced apples, nuts, or cranberries for added texture and sweetness. For a healthier option, you can replace some of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt, which increases protein and reduces calories. When preparing the chicken, slow cooking it is key to achieving moist and tender meat. Cooking for long durations, whether at low or high heat, ensures that the flavors meld perfectly. Furthermore, letting the salad chill in the refrigerator allows the flavors to develop fully. To serve, try adding your chicken salad over a bed of greens with cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, and avocado for a refreshing meal. Pair it with whole-grain crackers or a light vinaigrette for a complete dish. This recipe is not only quick to prepare but also makes for great leftovers, inviting you to enjoy it in various ways throughout the week. Explore different dressings and toppings to keep things exciting, and enjoy this delightful twist on a timeless dish!
