Our favorite chicken sandwich recipes - 43 recipes
Chicken salad sandwich usually consists of canned or leftover chicken with a binding of yogurt, mayonnaise, or salad dressing. Chicken salad can be made a wide variety of ways using mustard, curry powder, nuts, fresh or dried fruit or hard-boiled eggs. Chicken salad is a great cold dish for the warmer months that can be served on toast, in a bun or in a lettuce wrap greens. My favorite combination is a curry chicken salad sandwich with apples, walnuts and golden raisins. What is your favorite combination?
