Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 chicken breasts
1 clove garlic
1 green onion, chopped
2 tablespoons parsley
3 ounces fat-free cream cheese or 3 ounces neufchatel cheese
1 dash pepper
1 dash celery salt

Steps:

  • Simmer the chicken and garlic until chicken no longer runs pink when pierced.
  • Cut the chicken in 1" pieces.
  • Put all ingredients, including garlic, through blender or grinder.
  • Blend smoothly.
  • Chill and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are the best choice for this recipe, as they are lean and easy to shred. You can also use rotisserie chicken for a quick and easy option.
  • Cook the chicken properly. Be sure to cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Use a food processor or blender to shred the chicken. This will make the chicken spread smooth and creamy. You can also chop the chicken by hand, but this will take more time.
  • Add your favorite seasonings and ingredients. This recipe is a basic template, so feel free to add your favorite seasonings and ingredients to taste. Some popular additions include mayonnaise, celery, onion, and dill.
  • Chill the chicken spread before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the spread to firm up.

Conclusion:

Chicken spread is a delicious and versatile dish that can be used as a sandwich spread, dip, or appetizer. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious chicken spread that everyone will love.
