The Best Chicken Salad Sandwich

  • Prepare the Chicken:
    • Cut the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  • Chop the Vegetables:
    • Chop the grapes, celery, and onion into small pieces.
  • Toast the Almonds:
    • Place slivered almonds on a baking sheet and toast under the broil setting in the oven.
    • Watch them closely, as they can burn quickly—about 1-2 minutes should be enough!
  • Mix the Ingredients:
    • Combine the chicken, chopped grapes, celery, onion, and toasted almonds in a large bowl.
  • Season:
    • Add salad dressing, celery seed, paprika, and pepper to taste. Mix everything together until well coated.
  • Serve:
    • Serve the chicken salad on your choice of bread, or enjoy it on a bed of greens for a lighter option.
