Step 1
Start by combining the cooked chicken, mayonnaise, chopped celery, diced apple, and cranberries in a big bowl. Add a spoonful of horseradish sauce along with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Stir everything together until it’s well mixed. Cover the bowl and pop it in the fridge for a couple of hours to let the flavors meld. When you’re ready, give it a quick stir and serve chilled.

How to serve

Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Keep the dressing separate if possible to prevent the salad from becoming soggy. Give it a gentle toss before serving again to refresh the flavors and textures.
