A chicken salad sandwich combines tender, shredded or diced chicken with a creamy dressing made from mayonnaise or Greek yogurt, often mixed with celery, onions, and spices for added crunch and flavor. Typically served between slices of bread, rolls, or croissants, this dish is a classic representation of American comfort food with origins tracing back to the late 1800s when chicken salads gained popularity as a way to repurpose leftover poultry. Nutritionally, it provides a good source of protein from the chicken, while ingredients like celery and onions offer fiber and vitamins. Using Greek yogurt as a base can make it a healthier option by reducing fat. However, traditional mayonnaise and buttery bread choices may increase calories and saturated fats. Pairing it with whole-grain bread and fresh vegetables can enhance its health benefits while retaining its timeless appeal.
