Mom’s Recipe – Hot Chicken Salad

*One of Mary Myrick’s best recipes*

Ingredients:

  • 2-1/2 to 3 cups cooked chicken, cut into pieces
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 3/4 cup celery, diced
  • 1 tsp. dried minced onion
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 2 tsp. lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup crushed potato chips

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Mix together all ingredients except the potato chips. Put mixture into a 1 to 1-1/2 qt. glass casserole dish. Bake for 25 minutes, remove from oven and sprinkle with the crushed potato chips and return to oven for 5 more minutes. Serve hot.

I usually use chicken breasts which I simmer in salted water and then skin and cut up in pieces, but, any cooked chicken will do and, I suppose even canned chicken would be fine. I have found that the amount of chicken does not have to be exact and can be a little more or less. You can always add a bit more mayonnaise. Raw onion can be used in place of the dried and the lemon juice can be either fresh or concentrate.

*This is Michael’s favorite meal*
