Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwich
1. Cook and Prepare the Chicken
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the chicken breasts on a baking tray and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Let the chicken rest, then dice it into bite-sized cubes.
2. Make the Chicken Salad Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the diced chicken, celery, cranberries, and pecans.
Add ½ cup of mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt, stirring until everything is well coated.
For extra flavor, add garlic powder, fresh lemon juice, and a small drizzle of honey.
3. Assemble the Sandwich
Slice a croissant in half.
Spoon a generous amount of chicken salad onto the bottom half.
Add lettuce or sliced tomatoes if you’d like more crunch and freshness.
Close the croissant and enjoy immediately, or store it for later.
