A delicious and creamy chicken salad served on buttery, flaky croissants for a perfect lunch or light dinner.
2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup seedless green grapes, halved
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 large croissants
4 leaves butter lettuce
In a large bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken breast, mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard.
Add the finely chopped celery, red onion, and halved green grapes to the bowl.
Pour in the fresh lemon juice, then season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined and creamy.
Slice each croissant horizontally without cutting all the way through, creating a pocket for the filling.
Place one leaf of butter lettuce inside each croissant.
Spoon an equal amount of the chicken salad mixture onto the lettuce in each croissant.
Close the croissants gently and serve immediately.
