Key Ingredients
This yummy chicken creamy cucumber salad is full of fresh veggies and aromatics, and the dressing is mainly fridge and pantry staples, making this such a low-maintenance and easy ingredient list:
Rotisserie Chicken – I love this shortcut because it saves you a step not having to cook chicken. Of course, you can always poach your own chicken breasts instead.
Cucumbers – English cucumbers are the BEST! These are the long cucumbers wrapped in plastic in your produce section.
Peppers – we’ll use fresh jalapeno pepper and red bell pepper. Both seeded and diced.
Aromatics – cilantro, red onion, green onion, and garlic are all used.
Corn – I’ve found that canned corn tastes best in this creamy cucumber salad recipe. You can also
Dressing – Greek yogurt, mayo, lime, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper.
