Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches
Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches are filled with flavorful chicken salad stuffed between buttery, soft croissants. These are delicious sandwiches we love to eat year round!
I believe everyone has their own special way to make chicken salad. The varieties are endless and definitely delicious. I like mine pretty simple, and without any nuts, like a lot of recipes have.
Today, I’m sharing my favorite way to make it. My chicken salad is cool, refreshing and so flavorful. It’s the perfect recipe for summer time! One of my favorite ways to enjoy it is between a soft buttery croissant.
These Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches are amazing. They make for a great summer lunch or dinner, but I make them year round because we love them so much.
My main advice is to prepare the chicken salad at least 4 to 6 hours in advance. Overnight is even better! This way all the flavors have a chance to really develop. It’ll be worth the wait. I promise. 😉

Thank you for sharing your recipe…such a good recipe indeed!
I SUBSTITUTEd 1 tsp of dried dill. It was delicious.
My husband does not like mayo. Could plain Greek yogurt work as a substitute?
I haven’t tried replacing the mayo with greek yogurt, but I think it would work just fine 🙂
I’ve used greek yogurt instead of sour cream in this recipe and i think it tastes just as good!
hands down. Best chicken salad I have ever had!
