We’re embracing our love of dill pickles today, because well…they’re delicious. Cold, crispy, tangy, salty, they just add such a punch of flavor and I can’t get enough of them.
You saw me take potato salad to the next level with our dill pickle potato salad and now here we are with this dill pickle chicken salad.
You’ve got the tangy, crunchy pickles with the creamy dressing, hard boiled eggs, savory shredded chicken, and buttery pecans. You can enjoy this chicken salad all by itself or spread it on some bread or a croissant to make a sandwich! It’s also delicious as a dip for crackers!
