Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 pounds chicken tenders Cooked and shredded
  • 2/3 cups Dukes mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Knorr chicken bouillon powder
  • 2 teaspoons dry ranch dressing mix Adjust according to taste
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill For flavor
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped cucumber Remove seeds before chopping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pour enough water into a pot to cover the chicken tenders by about one inch.
  2. Add the chicken bouillon powder to the water and stir to dissolve.
  3. Bring the water to a gentle simmer, then add the chicken tenders. Allow them to simmer until fully cooked, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F.
  4. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool completely. Shred the cooled chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, Dukes mayonnaise, dry ranch dressing mix, chopped dill, and finely chopped cucumber. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated.
  6. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld together.

Notes

Serve on crusty bread, in a wrap, or over greens. Ideal for picnics, best enjoyed within 3-5 days of preparation. Freezing may affect texture.
