American · Main course · 20 min total

A refreshing and protein-packed lunch where creamy chicken salad is stuffed into ripe tomatoes, perfect for a light meal or appetizer.

Ingredients

• 2 cups cooked chicken, diced
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/4 cup celery, finely diced
• 2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 large ripe tomatoes
• Lettuce leaves for serving (optional)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, combine diced chicken, mayonnaise, lemon juice, celery, red onion, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well until evenly coated.
2. Cut the top off each tomato and scoop out the pulp and seeds with a spoon, leaving a thick shell. Discard the pulp or reserve for another use.
3. Invert the tomatoes on a paper towel to drain excess liquid for about 5 minutes.
4. Spoon the chicken salad evenly into each tomato cavity, mounding slightly.
5. Serve immediately on a bed of lettuce leaves, or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tips

• For best flavor, use rotisserie chicken or leftover roasted chicken.
• If preparing ahead, stuff tomatoes just before serving to prevent sogginess.
• Garnish with additional parsley or a sprinkle of paprika for color.
