Ingredients
2 1/2 cups cooked chicken breast, diced

1/2 cup light mayonnaise
Directions
In a large bowl, combine the diced cooked chicken breast, chopped celery, chopped onion, and pickle relish.

Serve immediately on bread, crackers, lettuce cups, or over a bed of fresh greens. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Comments
Every ingredient is stocked at any Charlotte grocery chain—rotisserie chicken works even better if you're short on time. Cost per serving runs under two dollars, driven by mayonnaise and the chicken itself, both cheap at any local store. The stated ten minutes ignores cooking the chicken breast from scratch, which adds twenty to thirty minutes, though using a store-bought rotisserie cuts that back to honest ten. It reheats adequately and feeds a family easily with no attention once assembled, making it reliable for weeknight lunches or a fridge staple, though it's not a dinner showstopper and the flavor flatness means it won't excite picky eaters.
