4 cups grilled boneless skinless chicken breast diced into 1/4 ” cubes

1/2 C Defcon Defense Condition 2 All Purpose wing sauce 

1/2 C mayonaise

1/4 C finely diced shallots

1/4 C finely diced onion

blue cheese crumbles

dark rye bread

lettuce

Season and grill chicken breast approx 4lbs (raw weight) boneless skinless chicken breasts.  You could also use left over turkey from your holiday celebrations.   Chop into 1/4″ cubes.  In a large bowl combine chicken, Defcon sauce (you could substitute Condition 1 or 3, or even MKII if you are feeling a little less than sane, but I prefer the condition 2 as everyone can eat it), mayo, shalots and onions.  Cover and let mellow in the fridge for an hour or so.  Spoon mixture onto bread add blue cheese crumbles, and lettuce.  Assemble sandwich, slice it if you like and enjoy!

This is a very versatile chicken salad.  It is perfect for making hors d’ouvres.   My wife doesn’t like things very spicy and doesn’t care for blue cheese.  She will eat this sans cheese crumbles, with swiss or cheddar, on crackers, atop a green salad (she just adds olive oil, I of course use blue cheese dressing), or straight up spooning it out of the bowl . 

As you can see winter is upon us.  You may notice I’ve made this a few times by the different pictures.   Sorry about the pic with the 1/4 C measure of sauce.  It takes 1/2 C of Defcon.   I couldn’t remember from last time.  When I tasted it I knew I had to double up.  Defcons 8 oz bottles hold a little more than 8 oz, so you can get two batches + a little extra per bottle.

Please enjoy this simple yet delicious recipe.  

I would be very proud if this were to be included in the Defcon recipe book! 

I hope to find more time to blog in the near future.
