One of our new favorites. I had this at a couple of catered affairs and decided to try and recreate it. Great summer salad. Ingredients:
3 cups leftover chicken breasts |
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper |
1/2 cup good mayonnaise |
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh or 1 1/2 tsp dried, tarragon leaves |
1 cup celery, diced fairly small (about 2 stalks) |
1 cup whole green grapes, (cut in 1/2 , if preferred) |
1/2 c sliced almonds |
Directions:
1. Cut the chicken into a 3/4-inch cubes
2. Place the chicken in a bowl
3. Add the mayonnaise, tarragon leaves, celery, grapes, almonds and salt and pepper to taste
4. Toss well
5. Chill, covered 1 hour for flavors to blend
6. Serve on bed of lettuce or spinach with sliced tomato on the side.
7. Note: Red grapes can be substituted for green
8. Note: Pecans or Pine nuts can be used instead of almonds
9. Note: Be inventive
