Rotisserie chicken salad makes an easy and flavorful lunch or meal prep for the entire week. Rotisserie chicken, celery, onions, walnuts, and cranberries are tossed in a creamy homemade herb dressing.
Remove the meat from your rotisserie chicken and shred into bite size pieces, discarding the skin and bones.
In a large bowl, add your shredded chicken meat and remaining ingredients. Stir to incorporate, adding more mayonnaise as needed to achieve your desired consistency.
Refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve over a bed of lettuce or on lightly toasted bread as a sandwich.

Notes
*One rotisserie chicken can be substituted with 14-16 ounces of any cooked chicken meat.
Walnuts and cranberries are optional, and can be substituted with almonds, pistachios, pecans, raisins, fresh grapes, or diced apple.
Chicken salad will keep for up to five days in the refrigerator, stored in a tightly sealed container.
For a lower calorie variation, try replacing some or all of the mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt.
