Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by opening the can of high-quality chicken and draining it thoroughly to reduce excess moisture. Transfer the drained chicken to a large mixing bowl, using a fork to break it apart into smaller, shredded pieces.
  2. Next, scoop in a generous amount of mayonnaise and a splash of sour cream to the bowl. Use a spatula to thoroughly mix them with the chicken, achieving a smooth consistency—this should take about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle in garlic and black pepper to taste, mixing well for another minute to distribute the spices throughout.
  4. Chop crispy bacon into bite-sized pieces and mix it into the salad along with shredded cheddar cheese, stirring everything together.
  5. Taste your chicken salad and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  6. Serve the chicken salad on warm croissant bread or over a bed of fresh greens.
  7. If time allows, chill the salad in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving.
  8. Garnish your chicken salad with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or dill.
