Roasted Chicken Salad with Whole Grain Mustard and Fresh Thyme

Ingredients

  • 4 cups roasted chicken, cut into bite sized chunks (see notes for recipe)
  • 1/2 cup red onion, diced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
  • 1/3 cup toasted pine nuts, toasted optional
  • 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients and stir to combine. Serve on crusty bread or by itself.

Notes

This chicken salad has become a staple in our household. The whole-grain mustard and fresh thyme is a nice change from the typical mayonnaise based chicken salad. Chopped kalamata olives, sun-dried tomatoes or artichokes would be nice additions to the salad. This recipe has been adapted from a chicken salad recipe from Food52’s Amanda Hesser.
