This Italian Chicken Salad Sandwich recipe is an easy recipe to make and is one of the best recipes you will ever try! It is a delicious twist on the classic chicken salad recipe. It can be put together very quick and it is always a crowd pleaser!

Italian Chicken Salad Sandwich is a delicious twist on the classic chicken salad sandwich. This sandwich is perfect for a crowd or for a picnic with the family. The sun dried tomato pesto really makes this sandwich unforgettable.

I created this recipe about ten years ago. I love Italian food. I wanted an Italian sandwich that was loaded with flavor and that I could make for a crowd. This sandwich definitely fills all of those requirements and more!

I like to use the rotisserie chicken that you can buy at the grocery store. It is nice that to not have to cook anything to make this sandwich! Just simply shred the already cooked rotisserie chicken and add in the other ingredients. And just as easy as that is, you have the world’s best Italian Chicken Salad Sandwich.

The recipe calls for walnuts. I like the crunch that the walnuts give the sandwich. If you don’t like walnuts, you could replace them with almonds, pecans, or pine nuts. If you are pressed for time on the day you will be serving them, you can make the sandwich filling the night before. On the day of your event, you can serve them either already assembled on a croissant or let your guests make their sandwiches.

This sandwich is perfect for picnics, showers, bunco, or anytime you need a crowd pleasing meal! With the weather warming up and all the outdoor activities that are starting to happen, I foresee this recipe getting a lot of use.
