  • 1 Tbsp. capers*
  • 2-4 Tbsp. mayonnaise (olive oil or avocado oil-based)
  • Salt or Herbamare and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Lettuce leaves (green, red leaf or romaine), rinsed and patted dry

Directions

  1. Place all ingredients, except lettuce leaves, into a bowl and mix. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Place a few scoops of chicken salad onto a large piece of lettuce. Repeat until you are out of chicken salad. You can also use the salad to top a bed of mixed greens. Either way it is delicious.
