This is one of my favorite recipes for chicken salad. It’s great to serve on a plate of lettuce, as a sandwich on your choice of bread or as and appetizer served in phyllo dough cups or crostinis. I use the breast meat of a rotisserie chicken, not only because it’s easy, but they are well flavored, incredibly tender and very moist. You can use the dark meat as well if you so desire or you can use your own baked or poached chicken.
INGREDIENTS:
- 10 Oz. chicken breast cut into small cubes (you can use dark meat as well)
- 1/3 Cup Mayo
- 1 Tsp minced red onion
- 1/3 Cup chopped pecans
- 1 Cup white grapes, quartered
- 1 Tbsp dill relish
- 1/4 Tsp salt
- 1/8 Tsp pepper
INSTRUCTIONS:
Blend all the ingredients together and refrigerate. If you are going to use the chicken salad as an appetizer, you should mince the chicken. This is a very flexible recipe so feel free to use as much or as little of any of the ingredients as you desire. You can also omit any ingredient you are not fond of and/or add an ingredient of your choice.
