Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Chicken Macaroni Salad is a simple salad made from macaroni (usually elbow macaroni) and boiled chicken.  This Recipe for Chicken Macaroni Salad is prepared with a generous amount of mayonnaise.

Recipe for Chicken Macaroni Salad

Preparing Chicken Macaroni Salad is very easy. There is no major cooking involved: just boiling chicken and pasta.  Once the chicken has been shredded and elbow macaroni is ready, all you will need to do is combine all the ingredients and toss. Easy isn’t it?

Chicken Macaroni Salad is a regular side dish during picnics and family outings, macaroni salad is best if combined with grilled foods and barbeque. I find it best eaten with BBQ Baby back ribs.

How to Make Chicken Macaroni Salad

This recipe for chicken macaroni salad requires boiled boneless chicken breasts. Prepare the chicken breasts by boiling 4 cups of water. Add salt and put in the chicken breasts. Boil the chicken in medium heat for 15 minutes. Remove the chicken from the water and let it cool down before slicing. You can also shred the chicken using your hands.

The elbow macaroni should be cooked according to the instruction indicated in the package. Once the macaroni is ready, let the water drip and arrange it in a mixing bowl. The next steps is to gently mix-in all the other ingredients making sure that everything is well blended. It is best to serve this cold. Place it inside the fridge covered and chill for 1 to 3 hours.

    Thanks for sharing your recipes, Chef Vanjo! Me and my husband has had a lot of success “cooking” stories courtesy of Pansalang Pinoy 🙂 I hope you won’t get tired of doing this. Your website brings the “flavor of home” to a lot of Pinoys abroad. Keep up the good work, kabayan. Looking forward to learning more cooking tips and recipes from Panlasing Pinoy! 🙂
