Instructions
-
Cook the Chicken: Begin by cooking the chicken breasts in a skillet over medium heat until the juices run clear, ensuring that the chicken is fully cooked and tender. Once cooked, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before dicing.
-
Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the diced celery and onion. Sauté them together for about 3 minutes, or until they soften and the onions become translucent, enhancing their flavors.
-
Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, sautéed celery and onion, cooked rice, mayonnaise, chicken broth, lemon juice, and chopped hard-boiled eggs. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and evenly coated.
-
Prepare for Baking: Transfer the mixture into a buttered baking dish, spreading it evenly to ensure even cooking.
-
Add Crunchy Topping: Generously cover the top of the chicken salad mixture with crushed potato chips, adding a delightful crunch to the final dish.
-
Bake: Place the baking dish in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 20 minutes, or until heated through and the top is golden and crispy.
This Hot Chicken Salad is perfect for serving as a main course, packed with flavors and textures that everyone will love. Enjoy this hearty dish straight from the oven for a comforting meal.
