American Chicken Salad

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine the chopped celery, red onion, carrots, and chicken breast.

   Tip: Use a sharp knife to ensure the chicken is diced evenly.

2. 2

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper until smooth.

   Tip: Adjust the amount of dill to your liking.

3. 3

   Add the apple cider vinegar and olive oil to the bowl with the mayonnaise mixture and whisk until well combined.

   Tip: Use a fork to emulsify the dressing.

4. 4

   Add the garlic to the bowl with the mayonnaise mixture and whisk until smooth.

   Tip: Mince the garlic finely to avoid any chunks in the dressing.

5. 5

   Pour the dressing over the chicken and vegetable mixture and stir until everything is well coated.

   Tip: Make sure the chicken is fully coated with the dressing.

6. 6

   Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and well combined.

   Tip: Use a spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl and ensure the cheese is fully incorporated.

7. 7

   Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

   Tip: Add more salt and pepper if desired, but be careful not to over-season.
