This is my absolute favorite chicken salad recipe. I got it from my sister and went off of her recipe and changed it up a bit. I add grapes, but you can add apples, raisins, or all three. It goes best served w/ croissants.
Makes about 9 sandwiches and ready in 20 mintues.
Ingredients:
3 boneless chicken breasts
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
tbsp chicken seasoning
1/2 cup honey
tbsp mustard
1/4 cup mayo
tsp lemon juice
tbsp lime juice
1/3 cup almonds
1/2 cup grapes
Directions:
First step, boil the chicken breast. When finished boiling, let it cool, then shred the chicken. Add lemon and lime juice. Mix in honey, mustard and mayo. Break in half almonds, or put in food processor to make chunks smaller. Cut grapes in half. Add almonds and grapes to chicken salad. Add chicken seasoning and salt and pepper to taste.
It taste best after refrigerated, but you can serve it right away. Great dish to serve at a party/baby shower. Enjoy!
To make this recipe healthier don't add the mayo, just add another 1/4 cup of honey.
Good recipe...thanks. When it comes to awesome chicken recipes I would always go for the thighs myself. Could you stick some on top of all that green stuff
ReplyDeleteyum, sounds tasty! Chicken is super cheap right now so I'm glad to find recipes for chicken that don't involve an oven (I live in Japan and most people don't have ovens - boo!)
