Love to make this flavorful minced chicken salad in my Food Processor! You can totally customize the ingredients and texture to your liking. It's easy to scoop on a salad or in a lettuce wrap - stays put nicely in sandwiches as well. But, my favorite way to enjoy this Easy Chicken Salad is probably scooping it with some yummy crackers for a quick protein packed bite! Delicious!
Chop the carrot, celery and onion in food processor to as fine a texture as you like. (will chop a little further with the chicken)
Add the chicken and chop to as fine a texture as you like.
NOTE: I usually pour the veggie and chicken mixture into a bowl at this point and make the dressing in the food processor (no need to clean it at this point). You could alternatively make the dressing ahead and mix it right in the food processor after chopping the chicken.
DRESSING: Add all the dressing ingredients to the (empty) food processor and puree. Stir together as much of the dressing as you like with the chopped/minced veggies and chicken mixture.
Notes
Fresh Herbs:
substitute with your favorite herbs (basil, tarragon...)
substitute for about 1/3 the amount of dried herbs
skip the herbs altogether, will still be tasty! (I do this a lot in colder months when I don't grow herbs on the deck.)
