Ingredients

• 1 cup Cooked chicken breast
• 4 pieces Gluten-free croissants
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 medium Celery stalk
• 0.5 cup Red grape
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 stalks Green onion
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

Begin by shredding the cooked chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces. Place the shredded chicken into a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Step 2

Finely chop the celery stalk and slice the grapes in half. Add both to the mixing bowl with the chicken.

Step 3

Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper to the mixing bowl. Mix everything together until the chicken and other ingredients are well coated.

Step 4

Thinly slice the green onions and fold them gently into the chicken salad mixture.

Step 5

Split the gluten-free croissants horizontally to open them for filling.

Step 6

Place a lettuce leaf inside each croissant. Then, generously fill each croissant with the prepared chicken salad.

Step 7

Serve immediately, or chill the chicken salad for 30 minutes before assembling for a colder, refreshing variant.
