Steps(4)
- 1
Make the chicken salad. Place the chicken, bacon and cheese into a mixing bowl.
- 2
Stir together the mayonnaise, sour cream, pickle ranch dressing and lemon juice until well combined. Toss with the chicken mixture until well coated; set aside.
- 3
Cut whole pickles in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon, scoop out the center of the pickles — the seeds and a bit of the flesh — to create a “boat,” leaving about 1/8—1/4-inch of pickle around the edge.

Spoon chicken salad into the pickle boats, dividing evenly between the boats. Sprinkle with the chopped scallions and serve immediately.
