Creamy Chicken and Carrot Spread – A Hidden Gem You’ll Want to Save
Step 1: Prep the Ingredients
Start by shredding or finely chopping the cooked chicken breast. Use leftover roast chicken, poached chicken, or store-bought rotisserie for convenience.
Peel and grate the carrots using the fine side of a box grater.
If using garlic, finely mince or press it to release the flavor.
tep 2: Mix It All Together
In a medium bowl, combine:
Shredded chicken
Grated carrots
2 tablespoons cream cheese
(Optional) 2 tablespoons mayonnaise for a smoother, more spreadable texture
(Optional) Garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
A small drizzle of olive oil or squeeze of lemon juice for added freshness
Mix thoroughly until creamy and well-combined. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Step 3: Chill (Optional but Recommended)
For best flavor, chill the spread in the fridge for at least 20–30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
