Chicken Salad Croissant

Croissant does the heavy lifting here, with chicken breast rounding it out. An American lunch that takes 15 minutes, start to finish. The macros do the talking: 50g protein, 36g carbs, and 40g fat in every 713-calorie serving. It scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 1 Croissant
• 5 oz Chicken breast
• 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup Celery
• 1/4 cup Grapes
• 1 leaf Lettuce

Steps

1. Dice the cooked chicken into 1/2-inch pieces and chop the celery finely.
2. Halve the grapes.
3. Fold the chicken, celery, and grapes with the mayonnaise, salt, and plenty of black pepper.
4. Taste: it should be creamy, crunchy, and well seasoned — adjust salt now.
5. Split the croissant horizontally without cutting all the way through.
6. Lay a lettuce leaf on the bottom half to keep the bread from getting soggy.
7. Pile in the chicken salad generously and serve.
