Instructions
- Prepare chicken salad: In a large bowl, use rubber spatula to work together mayonnaise, mustard, pepper, garlic, celery, parsley and onions.
- Add chicken and cheddar cheese to bowl. Mix thoroughly with other ingredients. Taste and adjust seasoning aggressively, as flavors will be muted by bread, tomatoes, pickles and lettuce.
- Gently fold in eggs to preserve the yolks appearance and texture.
- Keep chilled until ready to use. Can be made a day ahead.
