I cut the breasts in half or thirds and stab little holes in them so they cook faster and absorb the flavor and moisture while they cook!<\/p>\n<p>While that&#8217;s cooking chop about 1\/2-3\/4 of the onion (depending on how much your bunch likes onion!) and 1-2 celery stalks. I chop mine very small because mine like the flavor of them but they aren&#8217;t much on the texture! You can sit this aside or put it in the bottom of your big mixing bowl&#8230;just be sure if you do you mix good from the bottom once its all together!<\/p>\n<p>While you&#8217;r waiting you can also 4th or 6th your grapes&#8230;.I don&#8217;t chop them because they get a little too mushy and they do better crisp in the salad.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Once your chicken is finished drain and shred the chicken (these small pieces make this much easier than if you had left them in huge pieces, you&#8217;re welcome) I just use 2 forks and shred away. Add them to the big mixing bowl and before you put anything else in mix the onions, celery and grapes with the shredded chicken.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Next add garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper to taste. I use 1+ tsp of these. Maybe I use a little more, but we LOVE some garlic and onion powder around here \ud83d\ude09 Now mix all this good again!<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least add the miracle whip and mayo. I use about 2 Tbsp of Miracle Whip and 3 Tbsp of Mayo mixed in and then just add by the spoonful until I feel like its enough. Mix very well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now I like to pack mine in an airtight container and let it all mesh together a few hours or overnight before serving.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I serve on croissants but its great on regular bread or rolls as well!!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy!!<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/morefrommom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Chicken-Salad-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3577\" src=\"http:\/\/morefrommom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Chicken-Salad-3.jpg\" alt=\"Chicken Salad 3\" width=\"850\" height=\"1133\" srcset=\"https:\/\/morefrommom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Chicken-Salad-3.jpg 850w, https:\/\/morefrommom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Chicken-Salad-3-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/morefrommom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Chicken-Salad-3-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Print the recipe card here:<\/h2>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/morefrommom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Ninis-Best-Chicken-Salad-Ever.docx\">Ninis Best Chicken Salad Ever<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"linkwithin_hook\" id=\"https:\/\/morefrommom.com\/?p=3576\"><\/div><script>\n<!-- \/\/LinkWithinCodeStart\nvar linkwithin_site_id = 1406085;\nvar linkwithin_div_class = \"linkwithin_hook\";\n\/\/LinkWithinCodeEnd -->\n<\/script>\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/widget.js\"><\/script>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/pixel.png\" alt=\"Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...\" style=\"border: 0\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nini&#8217;s Best Chicken Salad Recipe EVER!!!
