• Add hickory chips to a container or on aluminum foil on top of coals. Place chicken breasts onto the preheated grill as far away from the heat as possible.

• Dice each chicken breast; sprinkle with pepper and celery salt. Place diced celery and red onion in a large bowl; add chicken 3 breasts at a time, sprinkling with 1 pinch caraway seeds and mixing well after each addition. Stir in mayonnaise. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
