Chicken Salad
Ingredients
- 4 skinless boneless chicken breast halves, (about 2 ½ cups) cooked and diced (rotisserie chicken works)
- 1 stalk celery diced
- 4 green onions chopped
- 3/4 cup about 1 apple unpeeled small apple, cored and diced (I use Granny Smith or Honey Crisp)
- 1/4 cup craisins optional
- 1/2 cup seedless red or green grapes halved
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup chopped candied or toasted pecans raw pecans will also work or sliced almonds
- 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt or seasoning salt to taste
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup plain yogurt
Instructions
- In a large bowl, COMBINE the chicken, celery, onion, apple, craisins, grapes, pecans, curry powder, dill, salt, mayo and yogurt.
- MIX together until well combined. SERVE on croissant or lettuce.
- Tastes best if prepared the day before serving to allow flavors to come together while in the fridge.
- You may need to add a teaspoon or so of extra mayo just before serving to add a little extra moisture.
- SERVE on a lettuce leaf or a croissant.
