I made these sandwiches for my son's first and my husband's thirty something birthday this weekend. They disappeared quickly off the platter, so I thought I would share the recipe!
I really like how simple these were to make. You use a rotisserie chicken, so you really just have to put the ingredients together, rather than doing much cooking. The other bonus is, you can make the chicken salad ahead of time. Then when it is time to eat, you can quickly throw together the sandwiches. All of the condiments and seasoning are already mixed in. The recipe makes a lot, so this is good for a party, or a few days worth of lunches. I am not usually one for mayonnaise based salads, but I enjoyed this!

I got the recipe from the food network. I pretty much followed these ingredients except I added about a cup of roughly chopped walnuts (make sure to warn anyone with allergies).
Ingredients
2 cups chopped rotisserie chicken, skin removed (I used the whole chicken)
1/2 cup diced celery
1/3 cup diced carrot
1/3 cup diced red onion
1/2 cup mayonnaise with olive oil
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
1 teaspoon celery salt
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
Pinch of paprika
Freshly ground pepper
6 whole-wheat sourdough rolls, split and toasted Lettuce and tomato, for topping
Directions
Combine the chicken, celery, carrot, red onion, mayonnaise, mustard, celery salt, granulated garlic, paprika and 1 teaspoon pepper in a bowl. Mix until combined.
Serve the chicken salad on the toasted rolls with lettuce and tomato.
