You can also add celery and pecans in place of the cheese and bacon.

I mean, I know you're saving some macros but, cheese and bacon tho.

Nope, nope, nope. Not "in place of". Your period should be after pecans.

That would add some excellent textures to it.

There was a local grocery store who would make their deli chicken salad this way, except they would include quartered red grapes. I didn’t mention them because they’re not keto, but the texture was amazing.

I like a sweet element in chicken salad - usually I would do dried cranberries, but fresh apple or grapes are also great. Haven't really come up with what keto thing I can put in my chicken salad to mimic that flavor.

I'm gonna be lazy, on mobile & only able to watch later, you wouldn't happen to have the macros would you?

Thanks if so, no prob if not. :)

Thanks very much ! Looking forward to this. Not started keto yet - tomorrow or Wednesday - but this looks like it could be a staple. :)

Isn’t rotisserie chicken 1carb for every 3 ounces? At least the ones at wal mart are.

Edit: don’t know why I was downvoted. I’m looking at the packaging for the wal mart rotisserie I bought Saturday.

Sounds like they use some kind of sugar injected into the meat or on the outside like a glaze when its cooking? That’s not normally the case with rotis chicken.

What’s the serving size??

That's the whole recipe.

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Same, delicious. *Added some celery and baked some chicken thighs instead of using rotisserie.

2
Ecjg2010•

Never heard of it with sour cream. How does that affect the taste?

2
FustianRiddle•

Itll give it a tang if you find just mayo a bit dull. Itll also lighten it up a bit.

3
mrmyrth•

you didn't take into account the sugar used on Sam's Club or Costco chicken.

costco = 0.5g for 3oz

sam's club = 1g for 3oz

This is the sort of recipe I came to this sub for! Thank you so much!

I've had it with roasted broccoli and it worked well. Take fresh broccoli, toss with it olive oil and spices (garlic, salt) throw it in the oven at 400 for 20 mins. Gives it a nice texture.

i call this 420 cooking... just about any veggie, 400º for 20 mins. But I looooove slightly overdone broccoli, that crunchy goodness.

I was thinking you were going somewhere else.

That's what makes it easily memorable.

We pipe mayonnaise on to the individual broccoli florets and then roast. (Just cut a small hole in the corner of a Ziploc). I think it's French or something but once that broccoli gets a little charred and the Mayo gets all warm it's pretty damn tasty.

I like this idea as it's a good and tasty way to get more green veggies into my keto diet, where I'm often deficient in those.

I love chicken salad. I’m going to try this.

SheWlksMnyMiles•

This looks delicious! Honestly though, I’m kind of upset about the size of that bowl in the video lol 😂

5
ArentEnoughRocks•

haha was holding my breath the whole time waiting for it to plop over the side.

4
Marty1966•

Same here. I thought, this young lady mixes the same way I do, always in the wrong size bowl!

4
BreeBreeTurtleFlea•

Same! There was an irrational tightness in my chest watching that lol

3
Draydaze67•

Was this the main course and if so, what side do you recommend?

3
whiskeynostalgic•

I would do salad or raw veg and dip of some sort. Nom nom nom

3
SheWlksMnyMiles•

I think nearly any raw veg would be delicious. I keep think about this recipe since I saw it earlier this morning lol. This is a definite must make!🤤

1
whiskeynostalgic•

I know that I am going to be making it.

2
Funkygal76•

I made this also and the family loved it too! Great recipe!

2
FlowerShine2U•

Thank you! I’ll try this for lunch this week.

2
Ickulus•

This looks great. I miss having raisins in my chicken salad, though. I wish that I had a good substitute.

2
doodlesandbeer•

Definitely think I found what I’m making for dinner tonight. Thanks OP!

2
bda89•

I did this last week! I added celery salt for a little flavor and it was amazing!

2
jxam•

Going to try this next week, looks great.

Do you have to take the skin off the chicken for this or can you leave it on? Forgive my ignorance, I’m new to this whole deal.

2
lcourageOP•

We bought skinless chicken. If you have chicken with the skin I would probably take it off as it might the texture taste a bit off.

You might try adding some lemon juice as a preservative if you want it to last longer.

-1
pocketradish•

That's not how that works. If you add lemon juice to chicken salad it would just be for flavor.

3
AlbinoWino11•

Yeah. It’s this new thing called ‘joke’ I’m trying out.

-3
pocketradish•

Ah. Well it came across as misinformation.

4
AlbinoWino11•

Yeah i suppose it could if a person had no humour at all. Otherwise how do you read my comment with the context ‘it didn’t last long’
