Keto Chicken Salad

45 ratings

Chicken salad is a classic side dish! They can do more than just complement a barbecue, too. This chicken salad can be served as a side to a heavy meal, as a salad topper, or even enjoy it as a snack with Carb Manager Bacon Chips, Cloud Bread, or Cheese Crackers! This recipe is also especially light and fluffy with just a little tang to it.

        This was actually pretty good! Just the right amount of mayo. I did t put the dill weed in it or the celery seed and it was still good

          I've made this and used Pork Rinds as a cracker. It tastes better the next day after it all marinates in the fridge overnight. 🙌

            Are the pickles dill or sweet ?

              Dill.

              Dill. Sweet pickles have sugar/corn syrup/high fructose.

                  Excellent! I wasn’t sure with the amount of mustard and pickle but this salad is just lovely. We added some garlic and parsley.

                      Good. I like sweet chicken salad though and more crunch. I added celery- however much you want. Then 1/4 teaspoon of swerve to make it a little sweet. Good balance. Will make again. May play more with a sweeter once with a little bit of grape and pecans

                        I added apple bits and walnuts to keep carbs down from grapes. Ordinarily, I add nuts, grapes, and blue cheese crumbles to my chicken salad. I think I will add the blue cheese before I fill my keto pita pocket!

                              It’s about 1/2 cup. If you use a scale (like i did), make sure you deduct the weight of the container.

                              I’m guessing just pick the type of pickles you like it won’t really matter. If You hate sweet pickles dice up some dill pickles. I’m sure you can alter this recipe and add things to your taste.

                              It was already supposed to be pickles. The pic looked more like a cucumber though
