This Filipino chicken salad (or Pinoy chicken salad) can be made a day or two before any event. Fruits like pineapple, apple, and raisins are added for extra flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 skinless , boneless chicken breast
  • 0.67 cups elbow macaroni
  • 1 can pineapple chunks , 20 ounce
  • 2 boxes raisins , 1.5 ounce
  • 2 stalks celery , sliced
  • 1 apple , cored and diced
  • 1 carrot , diced
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a pot of water to a simmer over low heat; add chicken breast and cook until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer chicken to a plate; cool before shredding into a large bowl.

  2. 2

    While chicken cooks, fill a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Stir in macaroni and return to a boil. Cook macaroni uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and rinse with cool water to halt the cooking process until cool to the touch. Add to bowl with chicken.

  3. 3

    Add pineapple, raisins, celery, apple, and carrot to the bowl; toss to combine. Gently stir in mayonnaise, sugar, and seasoned salt until evenly coated. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving.
