The BEST Chicken Salad Sandwich
Description
I HATE CHICKEN SALAD. like, a lot. Mostly because mayonnaise is the absolute grossest thing on the planet. But I was once asked to bring some to a party, I so figured, rather than ski the party, I may as well make some that was actually good.
Enjoy!

Ingredients
- 3C Smoked, Shredded Chicken Breast
- 6 oz Cream Cheese, slightly softened
- 2 Medium sized Green Apples, 1 peeled & grated. The other cut into thin slices
- 1/2 Cucumber, sliced thin
- 15–20 Large Red Grapes, sliced thin
- 4 Leaves Butter Lettuce
- Lemon zest of 1 lemon
- S&P to taste
- 8 slices Dark Rye Bread
Instructions
- Combine the Chicken and Cream Cheese. Stir it until there are NO cream cheese chunks. You want it smooth. Add the shredded apple, lemon zest, and about 3/4 of the grapes. season with salt and pepper. ( I like a little more pepper in this recipe!) Stir to combine.
- On 4 slices of bread, layer a hefty amount of the chicken mix, then a layer of sliced grapes, apples, then cucumber and lettuce. Serve immediately! * This is also an amazing compliment to crackers *Adding candied walnuts to this recipe is also super good!
