- Assemble the Sandwiches
Slice the croissants in half horizontally, being careful not to cut all the way through. Spoon a generous amount of chicken salad onto the bottom half of each croissant. Place the top half back on, pressing gently. - Serve
Serve immediately, or wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 4 hours. These sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for a day if needed.
Tips:
- Adding Fresh Herbs: Chives, dill, or even tarragon can add extra flavor to the chicken salad.
- Roasted Nuts: Toasting the almonds or pecans before adding them can give the salad a deeper, nuttier flavor.
- Croissant Alternatives: If croissants aren’t available, try the salad on whole-grain bread or in a lettuce wrap for a low-carb option.
Enjoy these Chicken Salad on Croissants sandwiches as a part of a lunch platter with fresh fruit or mixed greens on the side. They’re sure to be a hit!
