This lightened Classic chicken salad made from scratch uses far less mayonnaise that most recipes call for. It comes out tender and delicious, perfect on a bagel, served over lettuce or in a wrap.

Ingredients

  • 1 chicken bouillon
  • 1/4 onion (chopped)
  • 2 tbsp parsley chopped
  • 2 celery stalks (finely chopped)

Instructions

  • In a medium sauce pan, place chicken, half the celery, half the onion, parsley and cover with water.
  • Add bullion and cook on medium flame, covered for about 15-20 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
