Ingredients

  • Vlassic kosher dill whole pickles
  • chicken salad
  • smoked paprika

Instructions

  • Using a sharp paring knife, cut a whole pickle in half lengthwise right down the middle.
  • Using a spoon, scoop out the seeds and flesh in the middle of the pickle to create a boat/shell. Don't scrap it down to the rind, you want pickle left in each bite. Discard the pulp.
  • Repeat until you've hulled your desired amount of pickles. Place the pickles on a plate or serving platter of choice.
  • Spoon chicken salad into the pickle cavities, filling each evenly, until all pickles are filled.
  • Sprinkle a pinch of smoked paprika over each chicken salad stuffed pickle.
  • Serve immediately & enjoy!

Notes

  • To make this for a packed lunch, I recommend preparing the pickle boats at home and storing them in a larger tupperware container. Store the chicken salad separately in another container and bring a spoon for scooping the chicken salad into the pickles.
  • These are awesome wrapped in a slice of your favorite cheese. I recommend Swiss or Provolone.
  • Use a creamy chicken salad and not a vinegary one for best results.
