Deli-Style Chicken Salad

Step 1:

Prepare the chicken breasts and thighs by lightly coating them in oil. Add some granulated onion, cracked black pepper, and salt from the sea.

Step 2:

Put in a baking dish and cover with aluminum foil in a loose manner. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the breast, as measured in the thickest portion, reaches at least 165 degrees.

Step 3:

Allow the chicken to cool for a minimum of ten minutes before refrigerating it for at least an hour. Once cooled, cut the chicken breasts and thighs into 1/4-inch long and 1/2-inch wide pieces. Combine the diced chicken, celery, and mayonnaise in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.

Step 4:

Make sure that all of the ingredients are well combined, then cover and place them in the refrigerator for at least one to two hours, or perhaps overnight. Since all of the flavors will have had more time to combine, the chicken salad will taste far better the next day.

Step 5:

To adjust the seasoning, taste the dish and add more salt and pepper as necessary. Serve and enjoy!
