We had so many leftovers in the refrigerator last night. My son-in-law decided he wanted some chicken salad to have on crackers while we were watching tv, and made this one up. We all laughed at him when we saw it, but it was absolutely DELICIOUS! Luckily he made a lot, because my husband is taking a sandwich with it to work!
Eric's Smokey FRIED CHICKEN SALAD
1 large fried chicken breast, with skin (ours was Dixie Fry oven-fried ~ very crunchy skin)
about 1/4 cup finely chopped white onion
about 2 heaping TB mayonnaise or Miracle Whip
1 heaping TB horseradish sauce (or mix about 1 tsp. horseradish with 3 tsp. sour cream)
Kosher salt, to taste (we like a lot)
about 1 cup (or more) shredded cheese (we used Colby/Cheddar combo, but any is fine)
1-2 tsp. smoked paprika (smoked is essential for flavor ~ regular paprika isn't as good)
***
Dice/shred the chicken and crunchy skin into fine pieces. Mix everything else together with it. Serve on crackers or make sandwiches.
NOTE: My daughter and I thought that chopped fresh cilantro or parsley would be great in here, but men don't seem to grab anything "green" when they're in the kitchen.
