Discover the Chicken Spiedie Salad

If the term ‘spiedie’ is unfamiliar to you, here’s an introduction to this renowned dish hailing from central New York, particularly the Binghamton area. The spiedie has garnered such local admiration that there’s even an annual Spiedie Fest dedicated to it.

The Chicken Spiedie Salad takes the core elements of grilled chicken and bread to create a fresh new take on this regional classic. Traditionally, spiedies consist of marinated cubes of meat, usually chicken, that are grilled and served on bread or a roll. Their simplicity allows the flavors to shine through, making the dish both hearty and flavorful.

In our salad adaptation, the essence of a classic spiedie is preserved while transforming it into a dish that invites more variety and freshness. The grilled chicken retains its tender, seasoned quality, while the grilled bread adds a delightful texture that complements the greens and other ingredients. This approach maintains the spirit of the spiedie while offering a lighter option suitable for warm weather or those looking for a balanced meal.

This innovative dish not only pays homage to its origins but also provides a sumptuous twist for both newcomers and spiedie aficionados. So, if you’re looking to experience a bit of Binghamton’s culinary pride, consider trying this Chicken Spiedie Salad.
