Step 3: Make the dressing
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, and ranch dressing. Give it a taste—too tangy? Add a touch more mayo. Not zippy enough? Toss in a little extra ranch.

Step 4: Combine and chill
Pour that creamy goodness over the chicken mixture and stir until every bite is coated. Cover the bowl and pop it in the fridge for at least an hour. Trust me, the flavors need time to mingle.

Step 5: Serve and devour
Scoop it onto bread, crackers, or lettuce, and enjoy. Don’t forget to garnish with a little extra bacon or green onions if you’re feeling fancy.

Storage Options:

Store this chicken salad in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Pro tip: If you’re making it ahead for a party, keep the dressing separate and mix it in just before serving. That way, it stays fresh and crunchy.

Variations and Substitutions:

  • Cheese swap: Try pepper jack for a little kick or gouda for a smoky edge.
  • Go Greek: Use Greek yogurt in place of sour cream for a lighter version.
  • Add some fruit: Diced apples or dried cranberries add a sweet twist that’s surprisingly amazing.
  • Herby vibes: Throw in fresh dill or parsley for an extra burst of flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I use canned chicken instead of rotisserie?
Sure, but rotisserie chicken has way more flavor. If you go with canned, drain it well and maybe season it a bit before mixing.

How far in advance can I make this?
It’s best within a day or two. The flavors actually get better after a night in the fridge!

Is this recipe gluten-free?
It can be! Just double-check your ranch dressing and other ingredients to ensure they’re gluten-free.
