Dena's Chicken Salad

My chicken salad starts with:

6 boneless skinless meaty breasts of chicken

seasoned with salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder(very light) and extra virgin olive oil

season both sides.

place in a glass Pyrex dish lined with foil.

bake for 1 hour

when done remove from pan place on a paper towel lined plate and let cool.

while they are cooling.

Get a big bowl

you will also need

2 large cucumbers

3 stalks of scallions

4 stalks of celery

start with your celery

clean it well make sure no strings are left

make a course dice of all 4 stalks and add it to the bowl

next the cucumbers

peel them  and slice

after slicing cute the cucumbers into match stick cuts

place those in the bowl

next the scallions

trim the tops and ends

and cut thinly

and them into the bowl

mix the veggies together

season with salt and pepper to taste

by this time the chicken will be cool

slice the chicken in nice medium thickness slices

after then cut those slices in half and add them to the bowl

2 1/4 cups (or to taste) Hellman's Mayo (this is the key to the taste)
