    Chicken Salad Sliders

    We had some friends over with their kids, and I wanted to make a few things for us all to snack on. One of the things I made was a slider version of my mom's chicken salad sandwiches. This time around, I used King's Hawaiian rolls, and they were great. They're definitely on the sweet side, though, and I think that because of the sweetness in the bread along with the pickles and Miracle Whip, I may try mayo next time.

    Ingredients
     

    • 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    • 1 dried bay leaf
    • 1-2 teaspoons grill seasoning or seasoned salt
    • 3-4 sweet pickles
    • 3-4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
    • ½ white onion
    • 1-2 stalks celery
    • Miracle Whip light

    Instructions
     

    1. Put the chicken in a large pot and fill with cold water. Add one bay leaf and sprinkle the surface of the water with grill seasoning or seasoned salt. Bring to a boil and then lower the heat and simmer until the chicken is cooked through.
    2. Drain and run under cold water to cool off.
    3. Transfer cooled chicken to a food processor and pulse to chop the meat, cutting the meat into smaller pieces, if needed, to fit (you may need to work in batches). Transfer the chopped chicken to a large bowl and use the food processor to chop the pickles, eggs, onion and celery.
    4. Stir in enough Miracle Whip to bind, and refrigerate.

      We put dill pickle chips on the leftovers, and it balanced the sweetness out perfectly!
