Step by step

Method

4 steps

  1. 1

    Pull the meat from the rotisserie chicken, discarding the skin and bones. You should have about 4 cups. Shred or chop it into bite-size pieces and chill it while you prep the rest.

  2. 2

    Quarter the grapes and dice the red onion and celery. Chop the walnuts into small pieces so every forkful gets a little crunch.

  3. 3

    Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Taste the dressing; it should be bright and lightly seasoned before it meets the chicken.

  4. 4

    Toss the chicken, grapes, onion, celery, and walnuts with the dressing. Chill for at least 20 minutes, then serve in sandwiches, lettuce cups, or over greens.
