Chicken Salad Sandwich

Who doesn't love a good chicken salad sandwich? It is one of our absolute favorite things to do with a rotisserie chicken or leftovers from a roast chicken dinner. The only thing required in a chicken salad is mayo and chicken, but otherwise the mix-ins are up to you.
We add the crispy celery, tart apple and herbaceous dill for a bright and slightly tangy bite, but you could add things like bacon, olives and even kimchi! Whatever you put in it, it will keep for up to 5 days in the fridge in an airtight container.
We love this salad between two slices of toasted sourdough or baguette, but it's also great straight up. Or, you can go the extra mile and throw a couple slices of cheddar on top and slide it under the broiler to make a chicken salad melt.

Method: In a large pot, arrange the chicken in a single layer. Place lemon slices and dill sprigs on chicken and pour water over it, covering by at least an inch. Bring water to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until cooked through, 10 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes, then slice into 1" pieces. In a large bowl, combine chicken, apple, onion, and celery. In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon, and vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Pour dressing over chicken mixture and toss. Garnish with chopped dill and serve on a baguette with lettuce.
