Step-by-Step Instructions

Begin by shredding the cooked chicken breast using a stand mixer on a low setting for about 2-3 minutes.
Finely mince the celery until it resembles small pieces that blend seamlessly into the salad.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mayonnaise, minced celery, bacon, drained pineapple, jalapeño, onion powder, and black pepper.
Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning, letting flavors meld for about 5 minutes.
Transfer the salad to a serving dish and enjoy chilled on lettuce, in a sandwich, or as a dip.
