    Chicken salad is a great way to use leftover chicken from a rotisserie chicken from the store or homemade roast chicken. Celery gives this tasty chicken salad a nice crunch, and it has just the right amount of seasoning.

    🍲 Adaptations for dietary restrictions

    Gluten-free

    • Montreal chicken seasoning isn't officially GF, but McCormick says they note when their "natural seasonings" and such include gluten (find out more in the FAQs under the contact form on McCormick's contact page). However, it's best to always do your own research on any product and make the best decision for your family. There are also recipes for homemade Montreal chicken seasoning available online; making your own allows you to control the ingredients, and spice mixes are quick and easy to make.
    • Instead of croissants, you can use GF bread or use the lettuce leaves to make wraps.

      Quick & easy and tastes AMAZING! I used rotisserie chicken and saltine crackers instead of croissants. Perfect.

        Thanks, Shae! I have used rotisserie chicken from Costco for this recipe and the slow roasting definitely results in great flavor in the chicken salad.
