This chicken salad came about when I was trying to think of a simple summer meal for my family. Perfect for lunch or light dinner! Serve on toasted bread for sandwiches, or inside of a scooped-out tomato.

Ingredients | Costco Cranberry Brie Chicken

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

salt and ground black pepper to taste

1 bay leaf

1 Granny Smith apple, finely chopped

1 cup sliced almonds

1 cup dried cranberries

2 green onions, thinly sliced

½ lemon, zested

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 cup creamy salad dressing (such as Miracle Whip®), or more to taste

Directions

Place chicken breasts in a saucepan; season with salt and pepper. Cover with 1 inch of water and add bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Drain chicken and cool until easily handed. Shred with 2 forks.

Mix chicken, apple, almonds, cranberries, green onions, lemon zest, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a bowl. Add creamy salad dressing and mix until combined.

Substitute mayonnaise for the creamy salad dressing if preferred.
