Number Of Ingredients 10

Rotisserie chicken (1/2 bird)
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayo
4 stalks celery, chopped finely
1/3 cup sweet onion, chopped finely
Salt 1 teaspoon
Sugar 1 teaspoon

Steps:

  • 1. Remove chicken from the bones - remove the skin as well (not great in this salad) 2. You will use about 1/2 of the chicken from a Costco rotisserie chicken. You want to chop it up finely - I used a food chopper, and it worked great. 3. Chop celery and sweet onion very finely - again, I used a food chopper. 4. In a separate bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sour cream, salt, sugar, lemon juice, parsley, and vinegar. 5. Combine chicken, celery, and onion in a large bowl. 6. Fold in the dressing and combine together. 7. Refrigerate a few hours for best results!

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 3-pound cooked rotisserie-style chicken, cooled and pulled apart into medium-sized pieces, bones and skin removed
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup sour cream (for dairy-free diets, use a dairy-free version)
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
½ lemon, juiced (about 1 tablespoon)
½ teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons sugar (leave out for sugar-free diets)
6 celery ribs, finely diced
½ white onion, finely diced

Steps:

  • Place the cooked and cooled chicken in a food processor fitted with the "S" blade. Turn it on for about 15-20 seconds to shred the chicken. Or, you can also just use a sharp knife to finely chop the chicken for the salad. The Costco version is finely shredded.
  • Place the finely shredded or chopped chicken in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
  • Then, in a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, lemon juice, onion, salt, and sugar. Stir to combine until smooth.
  • Pour the mayonnaise mixture over the chicken. Add the celery and onion and stir to combine.
  • Serve immediately, or cover and chill until you're ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Fresh, cooked chicken is best, but rotisserie chicken is a good option as well.
  • Make sure the chicken is cold before shredding it. This will make it easier to shred and will help to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a variety of fruits and vegetables. This will add sweetness, crunch, and color to the salad.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. Add a little curry powder, cumin, or chili powder to give the salad a little kick.
  • Make sure to chill the salad before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and will make the salad more refreshing.

Costco chicken salad is a delicious and popular dish that can be easily made at home. With a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can create a salad that is just as good as the one from Costco. The next time you're craving chicken salad, give this copycat recipe a try.
