Orange Ginger Chicken Salad Sandwich



This chicken salad sandwich is a favorite among my sandwich creations, it starts with cooled roasted chicken breast, mixed with crispy celery and infused with a orange, ginger Greek yogurt sauce and then sprinkled with sliced almonds and orange zest. I first posted this as an addition to my crepe recipe back in 2009, but have made some changes along with photos to show how I make this tangy yet savory sandwich. It complements any summer picnic or baby/bridal shower when served with fresh croissant rolls.



 
Ingredients:
 
  • 2-3 cups of cubed chicken breast (see how I roast or broil my chicken; click here)
  • 1-2 celery Stalks (chopped)

  • 1/8 teaspoon of salt
