Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds cooked chicken breasts
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ cup pumpkin seeds (or chopped almonds)
  • 1 cup red grapes (quartered)
  • 2 ribs celery (finely diced)
  • 1 small red onion (finely diced)
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)
  • ½-1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • ½-1 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)

Instructions
 

  • Chop or shred the chicken by either using a knife, two forks, or mixing on low speed in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment.
  • In a large bowl, add the chicken and the rest of the ingredients. Toss to combine. Taste and add more salt and pepper as needed. Enjoy!
  • The chicken salad can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, but it tastes the best fresh. I love to eat this between soft brioche hamburger buns.
