Chicken Salad Bites: Perfect for All Your Summer Events!

Sharing is caring!

Summertime is a time for gathering, cookouts, picnics and potlucks! If you need an easy, crowd-pleasing dish to bring to social events this summer, these chicken salad bites are for you! This yummy, festive appetizer is surprisingly budget-friendly and requires minimal prep time.   Even though they are perfect party food, these chicken salad bites are so easy that you can throw them together anytime you want!

First, you’ll need to whip up your chicken salad. We all have our own favorite recipe for this classic cold dish. Some people like to add fruit and nuts. Others adore sweet pickle and onion. My version includes the addition of pepperoncini. This mild, Italian pepper adds some freshness and textural diversity to the salad.

I also use canned chicken (quick and easy), mayonnaise, and Mrs. Dash sodium-free seasoning. The result is a simple, refreshing chicken salad that is perfect for summertime!

Chop up your pepperoncini into very small pieces. Next, drain your canned chicken. (You don’t want it to be soupy!)

Combine all of the chicken salad ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

Mix it well! At this point, you can taste the chicken salad and adjust it according to your own personal preference.

All that’s left is presentation! Using a small spoon, scoop a little bit of chicken salad into miniature phyllo shells. Since the shells come pre-baked, that’s all you have to do! It could not be more simple!

Now you can arrange the chicken salad bites on a pretty platter for a presentation that will look like you worked hard to produce this dish. You don’t have to tell anyone how easy it was! Are you planning to make this appetizer for an upcoming event? We think it’d be perfect for an Independence Day party!
