It was at a place that I always assumed was a typical dive bar, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that they actually had a really nice menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One was a lemon-thyme chicken salad served with pita wedges. Since I don&#8217;t like mayonnaise, chicken salad isn&#8217;t something that I think about very often. But this version was mayo-free, and it sounded absolutely delightful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I couldn&#8217;t wait to get home and make my own mayo-free chicken salad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m so excited with how this recipe came out! <strong>It&#8217;s absolutely delicious and it only takes about 10 minutes to throw together.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s perfect as an easy dinner, but would also be a great addition to your picnic basket or tucked into your lunchbox.  <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/thebusyfoodie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mayo-Free-Chicken-Salad-Sandwiches-with-Lemon-and-Herbs-Healthy-Delicious-Double-Size-1-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Ingredients for making chicken salad with lemon and herbs\" class=\"wp-image-30056\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.thebusyfoodie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mayo-Free-Chicken-Salad-Sandwiches-with-Lemon-and-Herbs-Healthy-Delicious-Double-Size-1-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/staging.thebusyfoodie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mayo-Free-Chicken-Salad-Sandwiches-with-Lemon-and-Herbs-Healthy-Delicious-Double-Size-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/staging.thebusyfoodie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mayo-Free-Chicken-Salad-Sandwiches-with-Lemon-and-Herbs-Healthy-Delicious-Double-Size-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/staging.thebusyfoodie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mayo-Free-Chicken-Salad-Sandwiches-with-Lemon-and-Herbs-Healthy-Delicious-Double-Size-1-150x225.jpg 150w, https:\/\/staging.thebusyfoodie.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Mayo-Free-Chicken-Salad-Sandwiches-with-Lemon-and-Herbs-Healthy-Delicious-Double-Size-1.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients needed to make this easy chicken salad:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To make this chicken salad recipe, you&#8217;ll need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Rotisserie Chicken.<\/strong> To keep things nice and simple, I bought a rotisserie chicken to make this salad. Roast chicken is nice and juicy, so I knew it would make a great base. You could also use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthy-delicious.com\/baked-chicken-and-spinach-flautas\/\">chicken breasts poached in chicken broth <\/a>(or beer!) for this recipe, but I&#8217;d stay away from grilled chicken, which is drier. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Celery.<\/strong> Thinly slices salary is great for a little crunch! If you&#8217;re celery came with the leave still attached, throw those in too &#8212; they have a ton of flavor! <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fresh Herbs.<\/strong> Parsley and Thyme give this chicken salad so much flavor and keep things feeling light and fresh.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"> You&#8217;ll also make my favorite lemon vinaigrette.
