Rachel's chicken salad

I've been in the mood lately for chicken salad, but I don't always like regular chicken salad with the grapes. So I decided to make my own version. If you like dill, you'll like this.

3 boneless chicken breasts, cooked and cubed. (I seasoned mine with sea salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper. Just a little cayenne though. It gives it a kick)
1/2 small red onion, chopped
3 celery sticks, chopped
1 c. mayonnaise (I used regular, I don't know how I feel about reduced fat)
1 TBSP dill pickle relish
1 tsp. vinegar
1/4-1/2 tsp. cumin


So easy. Combine chicken, celery and onion. In a separate bowl, combine the pickle relish, vinegar and cumin with the mayo. (I do this separately so that I can taste the sauce and make sure I like it before I add it to the chicken. That way if I screw something up, I can better salvage the dish. ) Add the mayo mixture to the chicken mixture and Voila! all done! Just chill (or don't if you're really hungry) and serve on bread or whatever you like.
