Start by cooking your rotini pasta on the stove following package instructions. Drain it and set aside to cool while you prep other stuff.
Dice your already cooked chicken breasts into small chunks. This makes every forkful just right.
Chop celery stalks, dice red onion, and chop parsley. You want all these ready before mixing.
Peel your hard boiled eggs and cut them in half. These get tossed in later to keep their shape.
In a big bowl, combine the pasta, chicken, celery, eggs, onion, and parsley. This is the base of your salad.
In a separate bowl, whisk together Hellmann’s mayo, whole milk, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make your dressing.
Pour the dressing over the pasta mix and stir gently till everything’s coated evenly. You wanna be careful so eggs stay halfed nice.
Chill the salad in the fridge at least 30 minutes. This rest lets flavors mingle and settle real good before you dig in.
