Pineapple Chicken Salad

Ingredients

  • 1- 2 teaspoons butter
  • 8 ounces cooked chicken, strips or cubed (about 2 cups)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low-sodium)
  • 2 cups celery, chopped
  • 20 ounce can pineapple chunks, drained
  • 1/2 - 3/4 cup red onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped almonds, toasted or raw
  • Pepper, fresh ground (to taste)
  • 4 cups salad mix or chopped lettuce

Instructions

  1. Soak the chicken in soy sauce at least 5 minutes.
  2. Heat butter over low heat in a skillet.
  3. Add the chicken and soy sauce. Heat over low to medium heat. Stir occasionally and turn the chicken to heat through from all sides.
  4. When the chicken is hot throughout, add the celery and cook until the celery is hot (about 3 - 5 minutes).
  5. Add the chicken and celery mixture to a medium bowl.
  6. Stir in the pineapple chunks, red onion, almonds and pepper.
  7. Chill for later or serve at once. Top salad mix or chopped lettuce with pineapple chicken mixture.
  8. Enjoy!

Notes

You can also use raw chicken and cook it in a skillet . Make sure the chicken is fully cooked. Cook enough raw chicken to make 8 ounces of cooked chicken.

You can save time by chopping the celery and onion when the chicken is soaking.

If desired, serve the Pineapple Chicken Salad with an additional salad dressing of your choice.
