This quick and creamy chicken salad croissant sandwich recipe uses leftover rotisserie chicken and is ready in minutes for a delicious, comforting meal perfect for any day.
Get your shredded rotisserie chicken ready in a big bowl. Make sure it’s all loose and not clumped together.
Chop your red onion and celery finely. Those crunchy bits will give your chicken salad great texture.
Add paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, basil flakes, sea salt, and dill relish to the chicken bowl. Mix to bring all the flavors to life.
Pour in creamy mayo and yellow mustard. Stir until everything is coated nicely and creamy.
Cover the chicken salad and chill in your fridge for at least 30 minutes. This lets flavors meld and the salad chill out just enough.
Notes
Warm your croissants slightly before serving if you like. Store leftover chicken salad in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Keep croissants separate at room temperature to stay flaky.
