I scaled this down for one person (me) and used a leftover thigh from KFC, minus the skin. Only thing I did different was add pepper. Everything else was left the same. I thought it had a little too much mayo, but that might have been because I didn't use a chicken breast. Other than that, I liked the added crunch from the other ingredients. It was quick to put together and used all ingredients that I usually have on hand.

I love this chicken salad. I used sweet pickles instead of dill. This will become a lunch staple. Thanks

I LOVED this chicken salad! I grilled the chicken breast with poultry seasoning, and used the sweet pickle relish and red onions as suggested and it was excellent!

Great base recipe for this salad. Not much flavor so be sure to add your own personal touches to liven it up!

Perfect! Thanks a lot. I served this on Peppy's pita bread also on this site, and it was really yummy. I added some chopped green pepper too. mmmmm...good.

Loved it! Didn't change anything except adding a little more mayo. It was fine w/ 3 Tbs, but I like mine a bit creamier than some might. Very, very good. Thanks!

This is now the only chicken salad that I make. This time I baked 3 bone in, skin on chicken breast. I rubbed them with olive oil, salt, pepper, and dried thyme. They baked for 30min @ 350. Excellent!

Mmmm... this was so good. Exactly what I think of when I think chicken salad. Didn't change anything but the addition of sweet pickles instead of dill. Fantastic! I didn't measure the mayo, I just mixed it in until it was creamy enough for me.

I use whatever kind of pickles are in my fridge at the time (if I had pickle relish I would have used that) and canned chicken. Very good.

I love this recipe... I have been making this for years...As far as adding sweet pickles, no way! Some of us only like sugar in our desserts. But to each his own.... Thanks for the post.

Fantastic!!!! I have never made chicken salad before, but as a first timer this was amazing. I picked the chicken off of a whole chicken that I cooked in the crock pot, (About 2 cups of shredded chicken), added about 1/2 cup low fat mayo, 3 stalks celery, 1/2 large onion, 1/4 tsp. garlic powder, 1/4 tsp. garlic pepper seasoning, and 3 TBSP sweet pickle relish. Mixed it up and it was sooooooooooooooo GOOD! Try this one you will not be dissapointed!

I have been making this for years. I love the dill taste. I add red grapes. I use this same recipe with tuna. Very good.

I've been making chicken salad like this for years! This is my go-to chicken salad recipe for sure! I bet using bread and butter pickles instead of dill to change the taste up would be interesting......

The perfect, traditional, no weird ingredients recipe (my husband was so relieved) recipe!

I made this for my husband and boys for lunch today. I finely chopped all the ingredients before mixing in the mayo. (more than the recipe called for) I only used 1 piece of celery and 1 pickle spear. I also didn't have any onion in the house so I used onion powder instead. My husband said it tasted like a pickle and mayo sandwich. My 2 year old (tomorrow!!) only took two bites but he's not a pickle fan. However my 4 year old loved it, which is why I gave it 3 stars. I will probably make this again just omitting the pickle. Thank you for sharing, Angel.
