    Chicken salad sandwiches are, hands down, my favorite kind! They are also so easy to make and fun to customize. I like making enough to have on hand for lunches all week! Using a rotisserie chicken makes them quick, and easy to make and it also adds great flavor! I've made these for luncheons and they are always a hit with friends.

    How do you serve chicken salad?

    Serve on a whole wheat roll, croissant, or with crackers.

    How many sandwiches will this chicken salad sandwich recipe make?

    Each batch makes 6 sandwiches. I like the mini croissants (20 pack) from Sam's Club.

    How long will the chicken salad last in the refrigerator?

    The sandwich filling will stay fresh for 3-5 days. The almonds will lose their crunch after a couple of days so I try to use it within 3 days.

      I love cranberries in chicken salad. I'm doing a roundup of recipes using leftover rotisserie or shredded chicken, may I use one of your pictures and link back to your recipe for the post? Thanks so much.

      I never thought to add cranberries to chicken salad! But I'm sure I'll love it! I'm having this for lunch tomorrow.

      I make a similar salad but use pecans instead of almonds. We had a rotisserie chicken this week and I was going to make some chicken salad out of it but I didn't have pecans or craisins so I made it into a chicken and rice casserole instead but i'm still craving chicken salad!

      I make a similar chicken salad with the inexpensive dried cherries from Cost Co. Sometimes I add pasta and make a satisfying main dish salad. What would we do with our rotisserie chicken?

      I love, love chicken salad! And while I have my go-to classics, I also like venturing out and trying new flavors and styles. You can't go wrong! And this version looks so easy and so scrumptious!

      We do this as well on nights we are in a crunch, but never thought to add cranberries. Interesting!
