Sorry but I don't measure when I'm cooking familiar recipes.





INGREDIENTS: skinlesss/boneless chicken breast, celery, sweet onion, mayonnaise, celery salt, chicken boullion (either powder, cube or paste.)





Poach chicken in water seasoned with boullion. Do not let boil, just simmer, until done. Don't drain. Cover pan and allow chicken to completely cool. I sometimes put in refrigerator overnight. When cool, drain and discard water. Dry meat with paper towel. Mix mayo with celery salt and set aside for flavors to meld. Dice celery (about 2 ribs) to 1 large breast and an equal amount or little less of onion. Dice chicken. Mix all and salt to taste. Cover tightly and refrigerate several hours or overnight.
