Rotisserie Chicken makes the most delicious chicken salad sandwiches any time of the year! Paired with our favorite chicken salad ingredients, you will make this recipe again and again. No matter if you buy the grocery deli Rotisserie chicken or make your own at home, there are many flavors to choose from.
Making chicken salad sandwiches is in my humble opinion the best way to use up leftover chicken assuming you actually have some leftover chicken. Sometimes I buy a Rotisserie chicken just to make this delicious sandwich.
There are folks out there who do not eat mayonnaise. Oh gasp! I’ve found some interesting substitute’s for mayonnaise including pulverized avocados! I’m sharing a Chicken Salad recipe today using Honey Mustard instead of mayonnaise which is super yummy and a family favorite at our house.
This Chicken Salad recipe begins with chopped rotisserie chicken and I cheated and bought one at the grocery store deli. We served our chicken salad sandwiches on wheat loaf bread but you can use rolls of any type you like.

I’ve tried to comment once before, but I’ve been traveling all day (from FL to SC) and the cell service was more off than on along I-95.
All of your sandwich salads look delish! My favorite (it’s gonna sound strange) is to core and slice an apple really thin and fill a whole wheat pita with arugula or spring mix, the apple slices and sesame ginger dressing. It’s been my fave for a while now.
