Chicken Salad




1 whole chicken, boiled
~1 c. Mayo
salt and peper to taste
Buns or any kind of bread

A Variation of seasonings:
Thyme
Dill and Cayenne Pepper or
Garlic and Rosemary

1. If you have a frozen Chicken, thaw. Place chicken in pot with filtered water and boil till meat thermeter is 170 degrees F. Don't over cook or your chicken will be dry. Remove from water and cool. When cool, remove chicken from bones and cube. You may want to save the water that the chicken was cooked in for a nice soup. If you have room in your freezer you could even save it in jugs for a much later time.

2. Add the rest of your ingredients, remembering that you can alway add more but you can never take away. I used the thyme variation here (it's my son's favorite).

3. Wall-ah! Some really nice chicken Salad for a summer lunch or picnic at the beach. Tip: To make your life a bit easier you can always use a rotisary chicken, it gives it extra flavor too!
