Flavorfully Fantastic Chicken Salad Sandwich Directions
- Begin by draining the canned chicken thoroughly to remove excess moisture. Flake the chicken with a fork into bite-sized pieces.
- Finely chop the pecans for a rich, buttery crunch.
- Finely chop the shallot for a mild, sweet onion flavor.
- Dice the green apple finely for a crisp, tart contrast.
- Chop the celery into fine pieces for a refreshing, crunchy element.
- Chop the dried cranberries or cherries for a chewy, sweet touch.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken, pecans, shallot, apple, celery, and cranberries.
- Add 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise, stirring to coat. If more moisture is needed, add an additional ½ tablespoon.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Gently stir in the diced tomato to brighten the salad without mashing the pieces.
- Carefully open the whole wheat pita pockets and stuff with the chicken salad.
- For extra flair, garnish with additional cranberries, apple slices, or chopped pecans on top.
