This warm chicken salad with asparagus and creamy dill dressing is an elegant yet effortless dairy-free dish that celebrates fresh, vibrant flavours. By using a shop-bought rotisserie chicken and seasonal vegetables, you can create a satisfying main course that feels sophisticated without the need for hours in the kitchen. The combination of tender new potatoes and crisp-tender asparagus provides a lovely textural contrast to the succulent chicken.
Ideal for a light spring lunch or a quick evening meal, this recipe is naturally hearty while remaining nourishing and healthy. The zesty dill and lemon dressing cuts through the richness of the chicken, while the addition of peppery watercress and fresh mint leaves adds a final layer of brightness. Serve it warm to get the most out of the fragrant herbs and citrus notes.

Ingredients for Warm Chicken Salad with Asparagus and Creamy Dill Dressing
Kosher salt
450g baby new potatoes
1 (1.1kg) rotisserie chicken
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup finely chopped dill
45ml lemon juice
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
450g asparagus (about 1 bunch), trimmed
2 cups watercress or baby rocket
1/2 cup mint leaves

How to make Warm Chicken Salad with Asparagus and Creamy Dill Dressing
Set a steamer basket in a large pot filled with about 1" salted water. Cover pot and bring water to a boil. Add potatoes, cover, and steam until just tender, about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut breast meat from chicken, remove and discard skin, and slice on the bias into 1/2" slices. Remove legs from carcass, remove and discard skin, and slice meat off bones into 1/2" slices.
Whisk mayonnaise, dill, lemon juice, mustard, pepper, and 1/4 teaspoons salt in a medium bowl.
Add asparagus and chicken slices to potatoes in steamer, cover, and steam until asparagus is crisp-tender and chicken is warmed through, about 3 minutes. Transfer potatoes, asparagus, and chicken to a platter or plates and drizzle with dressing. Top with watercress and mint and serve with lemon wedges alongside.
