How to make Chicken Salad Croissant Sandwiches
If the chicken is thick, butterfly it in half.
Preheat a frying pan over medium-high heat. Spray the pan with non-stick spray and cook the chicken for 8 - 10 minutes (or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees) flipping over halfway through.
Allow the chicken to cool for about 5 minutes on a cutting board.
Dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Dice the celery into small pieces and cut the grapes in half.
In a medium bowl mix the chicken, celery, red grapes, almonds, mayonnaise, salt, and black pepper until combined.
For the best flavor, chill for 1 hour in the refrigerator then serve on large buttery croissants.
