These were so tasty! I reduced it to make 8-12 servings using: 4 shredded chicken breasts, 1 can soup, 1/2 - 1 C. water, 1/2 tsp bouillon, 1/8 C. breadcrumbs, 1/8 - 1/4 tsp seasonings, & a pinch of poultry seasoning. It turned out so good, everyone loved them. Thanks for posting! -
First time ever making a shredded chicken sandwich recipe. My husband and I are from Ohio (hot chicken salad sandwich capital!) and both grew up on this classic. Neither one of us have a family recipe though. So after looking for one that sounded "right" we gave this a go. I roasted a whole chicken in the oven at 350 with carrots, onion, celery, chicken stock, butter and salt and pepper (family recipe). Removed skin and bones. Added meat to 1 can cream of celery, about 1/2 cup of cooking broth, approx 2-3 TBS mayo and 3-4 TBS plain breadcrumbs. Warmed and served. It was almost as good as I remembered! May add a little extra mayo next time just for the creaminess. But overall a great throwback recipe! So glad I found it! -
I took this to a pot luck recently. Everyone had the same comment: Chicken was very tasty but much better when not in a sandwich. The bread (and I used small slider buns) totally overpowers the taste of the chicken. May be better in a wrap. Sorry, I just can't agree with all the great reviews. -
Good sandwiches. I also scaled it down a lot and it turned out fine! -
I scaled this down quite a bit and pared our sandwiches with a slice of American cheese. Delicious! Thanks!

Used broth instead of water. Used whole chicken and seasoned it while cooking. Added mayo.
