For a healthier twist, substitute Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise. Add toasted pecans or walnuts for extra crunch and nutty flavor. A squeeze of lemon juice can brighten the flavors and add a touch of acidity. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce to the dressing. This chicken salad is also delicious served on lettuce cups or crackers.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
In a large bowl, gently break the drained chicken breast chunks into smaller, more manageable pieces. (5 minutes)
02
Step
3 mins
Add the chopped celery, halved grapes, and finely chopped red onion to the bowl. (2 minutes)
03
Step
2 mins
Sprinkle the fresh dill over the mixture and season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (1 minute)
04
Step
5 mins
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, and white vinegar until the sugar is completely dissolved and the dressing is smooth and creamy. (3 minutes)
05
Step
5 mins
Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and gently fold until all ingredients are evenly coated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the chicken salad mushy. (3 minutes)
06
Step
30 mins
Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the salad to chill thoroughly. Longer refrigeration (up to 2 hours) will enhance the taste. (30 minutes)

Step

Just before serving, lightly toast the croissants, if desired. Spoon the chicken salad onto the croissants to make sandwiches and serve immediately. (5 minutes)
