Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of curry powder or a squeeze of lemon juice to the chicken salad.
  • You can use leftover roasted or rotisserie chicken for this recipe.
  • If making ahead, store the chicken salad and croissants separately and assemble just before serving to prevent the croissants from getting soggy.
  • Add some chopped grapes or pecans for a sweet and crunchy element.
