Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup celery, diced
- 1/4 cup grapes, halved
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 large lettuce leaves or wraps
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 2 cups of cooked, shredded chicken, 1/2 cup of mayonnaise, 1/4 cup of diced celery, 1/4 cup of halved grapes, salt, pepper, and 2 large lettuce leaves or wraps.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken and mayonnaise. Stir well until the chicken is evenly coated with the mayonnaise.
- Add the diced celery and halved grapes to the bowl. These ingredients will add a nice crunch and sweetness to the salad.
- Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Start with a pinch of each and adjust according to your preference.
- Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is well mixed. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to keep the texture of the chicken and grapes.
- Take the large lettuce leaves or wraps and lay them flat on a clean surface. If using lettuce, ensure the leaves are whole and sturdy enough to hold the filling.
- Spoon an equal amount of the chicken salad mixture onto each lettuce leaf or wrap. Be generous, but make sure not to overfill to avoid spills.
- Wrap the lettuce around the filling tightly, or if using wraps, fold in the sides and roll it up from the bottom. Ensure that the filling is securely enclosed.
- Once wrapped, you can serve them immediately, or if desired, refrigerate for a few minutes to chill. This can enhance the flavors.
- Enjoy your Chicken Deluxe Salad Chicken Salad Wraps as a refreshing lunch or light dinner option!
