For a richer flavor, try using a roasted chicken breast instead of boiled. Add a tablespoon of Dijon mustard or a splash of lemon juice for extra zing. If you don't have dill pickles, sweet pickles can be substituted, but use sparingly. To prevent the chicken salad from becoming watery, drain the chopped pickles well before adding them to the mixture. Consider adding other ingredients like grapes, almonds, or dried cranberries for added flavor and texture.
