Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches
Flavors Used:
These Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches are perfect when you need an easy lunch with big flavor, my friends. The chicken gets poached in a flavorful broth made with Dan-O’s Original Seasoning, green onions, cilantro, and chicken paste, so it soaks up plenty of savory flavor before it ever hits the bowl. Then we mix it with creamy Dan-O’s Dips Dill, sweet grapes, crunchy walnuts, fresh vegetables, and a final sprinkle of Dan-O’s Crunchy Seasoning. Every bite is creamy, savory, a little sweet, and packed with Dan-Good crunch.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Dan-O’s Original Seasoning
- 1 packet Dan-O’s Dips Dill
- 1 tbsp Dan-O’s Crunchy Seasoning
- 2 lb chicken breasts, cut into chunks
- Water, for poaching
- 1 bunch green onions, divided
- ½ bunch cilantro
- 2 tbsp chicken paste
- 1 cup purple grapes, halved
- 3 celery stalks, diced, about ½ cup
- ½ cup orange bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 10 croissants, split
Preparation Instructions
- Poach the Chicken: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add half of the green onions, cilantro, chicken paste, and Dan-O’s Original Seasoning. Carefully add the chicken and boil for 6 to 7 minutes, or until it is cooked through. Turn off the heat and let the chicken sit in the seasoned poaching liquid for 10 minutes to soak up the flavor.
- Prepare the Salad Ingredients: While the chicken rests. Dice the green onions.
- Cool and Dice the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the poaching liquid and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Once it is cool enough to handle, dice the chicken into small, bite-sized pieces.
- Make the Chicken Salad: Add the diced chicken, mayonnaise, Dan-O’s Dips Dill, grapes, diced green onions, celery, orange bell pepper, and walnuts to a large mixing bowl. Mix until all the ingredients are evenly combined. Sprinkle in the Dan-O’s Crunchy Seasoning and mix again until it is distributed throughout the chicken salad.
- Build the Croissant Sandwiches: Spoon the chicken salad evenly onto the bottom half of each croissant. Place the remaining croissant halves on top to make approximately 10 sandwiches.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches immediately after assembling, and Yum Yum Get Ya Sum!
