PICKLES MATTER

Not all pickles are created equal. We recommend using Vlasic dill pickles for the best pickle brine flavor. The extra pickle juice is a key ingredient, so avoid using sweet relish. The savory taste complements this recipe perfectly.

Storage and Serving

Recipes containing mayonnaise don’t freeze well because the mayonnaise tends to separate upon thawing. So, we don’t recommend freezing this Dill Pickle Chicken Salad. However, it can be stored in the fridge for 3-5 days.

You can enjoy this versatile Dill Pickle Chicken Salad in various ways. It’s perfect for a classic sandwich or served on croissants. Alternatively, you can enjoy it with a fork, wrapped in fresh lettuce leaves, or pair it with fruit or salty potato chips.

Tips for Making the Best Chicken Salad:

  • For a unique twist, replace the mayonnaise with mashed avocado and sour cream.
  • Reduce the calories by using Greek yogurt as a substitute for mayonnaise.
  • If you prefer homemade shredded chicken, cook chicken breasts or thighs in a crockpot and use an electric hand mixer to shred the chicken for this recipe.
  • When in a hurry, canned chicken is a convenient option.

Dill Pickle Chicken Salad Recipe

A mouthwatering Dill Pickle Chicken Salad featuring chicken, celery, crunchy pickles, mayonnaise, green onions, and a hint of pickle juice.

  • 3 cups cooked chicken, diced or shredded (Rotisserie chicken works well)
  • 1 cup finely chopped dill pickles
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped celery
  • 1/3 cup sliced green onions
  • 2 tablespoons pickle juice (from the pickle jar)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (avoid table salt as it can make the salad too salty)
  • Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl. The salt will need about 30 minutes to dissolve, so adjust the seasoning as needed and add pepper to taste. Chill in the fridge until ready to serve.
  • Serve on sliced bread or croissants. For a low-carb version, enjoy it as lettuce wraps or on its own.
