Chicken Macaroni Salad Recipe

Recipe by: purple

"A macaroni salad with a twist- chicken! You may need to adjust the amount of mayonnaise once it spends some time in the refrigerator."

Directions

1In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook chicken until no longer pink and juices run clear. Let rest until cool enough to handle, then shred with two forks. Set aside 4 cups of shredded meat.
2In a medium pot with boiling salted water cook elbow macaroni until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water.
3Meanwhile, in a large bowl mix together the cooked chicken, drained vegetables, shredded lettuce, and mayonnaise. Add basil, pepper, salt, and garlic powder to taste.
4Add drained elbow macaroni to chicken mixture. Toss to coat.
5Refrigerate for several hours before serving.
