I agreed to make chicken salad for a ministry luncheon coming up in a couple weeks....problem was, I had NEVER even made chicken salad!!!! I searched for a good, easy recipe and came up with this one. It is AWESOME...Lee even raved about it, and he's pretty picky!
Hope you enjoy it too!~~
Chicken Salad Recipe Ingredients
· 3 cooked chicken breasts, chopped (I poached them and then shredded by hand)
· 1 or 2 stalks celery, chopped- about 3/4 cup
· 2 green onions, chopped
· 1/2 cup seedless grapes, halved (green)
· 3/4 cup dried cranberries
· 3/4 cup salad dressing, such as Miracle Whip brand (I used regular Kraft mayo)
· 2 Tablespoons coleslaw dressing (Marzetti's is good)
· 1 teaspoon each- paprika and seasoning salt
· Coarsely ground black pepper, to taste
Simply mix everything together well. Chill for at least one hour before serving. It tastes much better if allowed to chill overnight.
Serve on toasted bread, croissants, or lettuce leaves. This easy chicken salad recipe also tastes great in pita pockets or hollowed tomato cups. Also try different breads such as Ciabatta or raisin bread.
*We tried it on lightly toasted french bread, served open face...YUMMY!
This chicken salad recipe serves about 6
