Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

Fill large pot with water so chicken is slightly submerged and bring to a rolling boil for 30 - 45 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Once cooked set chicken aside and cool to room temperature. Drain chicken broth and select vegetables into separate container as it makes a great chicken noodle soup base!

    Dice apple, red onion, dill, tarragon, remaining celery and grate 1 carrot. Add ingredients to large mixing bowl.

  3. 3

    Add chicken breasts (at room temperature) to Kitchen Aid mixer. Mix on speed 1 for 1 minute until chicken is shredded to your liking. If you don't have a mixer then shred chicken manually. Add shredded chicken to large mixing bowl containing all other ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add pine nuts, apple, mayo, mustard, salt, pepper, and paprika to taste and mix thoroughly.

  5. 5

    Chill the chicken salad in fridge. Serve on a sandwich or salad with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!!
