Ingredients

¾ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh-squeezed lemon juice
2 medium celery ribs, cut into small dice
2 medium scallions, white and green parts, minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil leaves
2 Sous vide chicken breasts, chilled, de-boned, de-skinned, and cut into small (¼" - ½") dice
Salt and ground black pepper.

Directions

Any chicken meat can be used, of course, but I prefer bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts cooked to 150° in an immersion (sous vide) cooker. That's one hour in 150° water, or 90 minutes if cooking from frozen.

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice,
  2. Add celery, scallions, parsley, basil, and chicken and toss to combine.
  3. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
