Description

Air Fryer Copycat Chick-Fil-A Chicken Salad — Focusing on quality over quantity, Chick-Fil-A has one of the smallest fast-food menus. For decades, their chicken salad was a mainstay of their menu, available as a sandwich on whole grain bread or in a cup alongside crackers.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound breaded chicken tenderloins, frozen
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup celery, chopped
  • 2-3 tablespoons water
  • 1/4 cup sweet relish
  • 1 hardboiled eggs, peeled and diced
  • salt, to taste

  • Instructions

    1. Place frozen chicken tenderloins in the air fryer basket.
    2. Air fry at 350°F for 15–18 minutes, until crispy and a meat thermometer registers at least 165°F when inserted into the thickest piece.
    3. Let the cooked chicken tenderloins cool entirely before chopping.
    4. Place the cooled and chopped chicken in a food processor and add mayonnaise, celery, and 2 tablespoons of water. Pulse just until chicken and celery is finely diced.
    5. Add relish and hardboiled egg to the food processor and pulse just a few times more. All ingredients should be very finely minced.
    6. Season with salt to taste before serving. If the chicken salad is too thick you may also wish to thin it out with an additional tablespoon or so of water.
