Although I love to cook, during the hot summer months, I am not a fan of baking a lot, or slaving over a hot stove. This is a quick and easy chicken salad which takes advantage of the $5 rotisserie chickens available at my local grocer on Friday only. The chickens already pack a lot of flavor, so seasoning requirements are minimal. No cooking and fast prep time, with simple yet delicious results…works for me after a day at the beach, or busy work day.
Friday Night Chicken Salad
rotisserie chicken
1/4 c light mayonaise

2 scallions chopped
pinch of black pepper or Mrs. Dash to season (optional)
1. Remove the chicken breasts, deskin and chop. (Use the remaining chicken for something else)
2. Whisk the mayonaise and ceasar dressing in medium size bowl.
3. Add the optional seasonings if you like.
4. Add chicken and scallions into bowl and stir , until well coated.
It is perferrable to chill the chicken salad for at least a half hour before serving. Great served over greans or as a simple sandwich.

Following from Friendly Friday. I can’t wait to try the chicken salad recipe.
This sounds terrific! I am like you – I cant imagine eating anything “hot” when it feels like its 300 degrees OUTSIDE! lol I am heading to the grocery store tonight actually, I will try this! =)
I totally have to try this – I love Chicken Salad but (gasp can’t believe I’m admitting this) have never made it myself before because I never had a good recipe!
This looks great. And, seriously, in my house it could be the Monday through Friday Chicken salad because I’m always looking for easy and fast shortcuts.
That looks absolutely delicious!!!
