The Chicken Salad Recipe I ate every day for two summers

I served this at a tea party I had for my daughter's birthday. Let me tell you, this sandwich is so filling they couldn't even eat the other tea sandwiches. And it was so delicious, especially since I ended up smoking the chicken because we were already doing another recipe on the grill. We smoked it with apple wood. My friend also had me toast the almond chips before adding it to the salad 😋

Noooo!!!! Almonds, or any nut, does not belong in chicken salad.

Just now got through making this..... 2-smoked quarters (leftover), onion, celery, fresh dill, capers and a little dill pickle. 3 big table spoons Dukes mayo, 2 small table spoon Miracle Whip and a table spoon of Dijon mustard. Chihuahua wood smoked salt, black pepper and some Cajun seasoning and a little poultry seasoning. The capers are a game changer! Will have it for lunch tomorrow. Have a big ripe garden tomatoe, romaine lettuce. Will snag the crescent rolls and be ready to eat. Hopefully the "next day's" going to make it better or have I shot myself in the foot??? Great video my friend!

What about carry over cooking. Those breasts will be dry.

Can I substitute mayo with Greek yogurt?

Apples work too

I also like tuna salad on a croissant

I love your channel! I'm always learning something.

Why put grapes in it ???

❤❤❤❤❤

For convenience if I didn’t have other options I’d use high quality canned chicken like Kirkland brand. Fresh is better, obviously.

Looks delicious, I’ll try it. Shouldn’t we lightly toast the almonds?

putting hot food in the fridge is bad move buddy

My mom started adding grapes and it’s delicious. She was Italian and tried different things. I started putting graphing tuna salad too.

Thanks for a yummmm recipe

Fantastic! I am making this first thing tomorrow! 👍

I had the best chicken salad of my life in Key West and the recipe was almost identical to this; they added one really cool ingredient: toasted pine nuts. So good I still remember it years later. Thanks for the Lawrey’s idea!

Caprine bullshit, royal chef bullshit, globe tower bullshit, clock tower bullshit, crowned bullshit, hilton bullshit, rodents bullshit, patriarka bullshit, rothschild rockefeller bullshit, alien bullshit, rafa el bullshit, maharlika bullshit losers. hotel bullshit losers, magnolia losers, w bullshit losers. meow bullshit, monsters bullshit, VIPs bullshit, FOUNDERS BULLSHIT, BASTARDS bullshit, lawyers bullshit, Alpha sigma bullshit, 6 bullshit, f bullshit, lucifer losers,

Sazon seasoning is good as well

Where do u find dill and tarragon🤔and can u use small diced apples as well instead of grapes

I HATE celery; what are your recommended alternatives? Jicama?

Nice recipe, although I prefer pecan nuts above almonds. But I would never ever put it on an unhealthy, fatty croissant. Rather on some whole wheat bread with a bit of lettuce (no tomato).

This is called Chicken Waldorf Salad.

Lawry's seasoning has MSG folks! This is a toxic ingredient... please look this up. MSG also is disguised by food manufacturers with other substitute names which is deceptive. Headaches, chest pains, heart palpitations, numbness in the face, etc. I ended up in the emergency room after consuming this ingredient at a restaurant 30 yrs ago. Comingly found in certain brands of canned soup and stock, instant meals, boxed foods that save time, etc. Also in some condiments such as soy sauce.

Very happy I made this.

I appreciate you so much. Your approach to cooking and secret techniques are invaluable to me. My best friend and I share a love of chicken salad (tasty chicken salad, that is!), and I’m going to surprise her with this delicious salad and beautiful presentation. Thank you again for all you do!

What’s not to like? YUMMY!

I luv chicken salad sandwiches...but would have my grapes on the side, don't like them in it

You didn’t mention... ‘Apples’ , if you don’t have grapes 🍇. Pecans are also good. Love chicken salad 💕 .

Dried cranberries are a nice replacement for grapes.

I love chicken salad but I poach my chicken breasts or tenders in water. They come out tender but you have to watch you don't over cook them.

I gently poach chicken and get a little stock on side as result.

More moist.

Also try boneless thighs for more flavor.

Another option I like to do sometimes (ok, almost always) is swap the dijon for a bit of curry powder & a couple teaspoons of Major Grey's Chutney, fresh cilantro instead of the dill/ tarragon, and toasted cashews for the almonds. Put THAT on a croissant & OMG! Reminds me of the "Coronation Chicken Salad" sandwiches I used to get when I spent time in Edinburgh, Scotland years ago.

I do this recipe as well and I also add dried cranberries to ours

I also like to substitute Private Selection Orange Poppyseed Dressing for half of the mayo BUT, Kroger discontinued it. (also good in egg salad). It's so good I always had 1 bottle in the fridge and a backup in the pantry.

I may have shed actual tears in the store when they stopped carrying it.. 😥 Didn't even get a chance to hoard some bottles in my pantry.

This seems a lot like chicken salad that I used to order when I lived in Atlanta - from an ice cream shop, of all places. My favorite was what they called an Almond Chicken Salad Melt. Yes, on a croissant. Cheese was probably havarti. When I attempt to copy I lightly toast the sliced or slivered almonds and add them when I assemble the sandwich before grilling it.

Love it - yogurt, smoke sweet paprika sub / salad w/ walnuts! Yummy!

Raisins would be a good addition. How about dried cranberries? Those sound good too. Grapes, you wouldn’t think that would be yuck! It’s not. My sisters introduced me to grapes with chicken salad. Even tuna.

I love this recipe and I love Lowery's and obey seasoning in mine. and your right, it's perfect on a croissant! Thanks for the recipe

Awesome!!!

Nothing new here !

Yes! Finally a good recipe. I love love a good chicken salad. Will make this. Love how you cut up the veggies. Winner winner chicken dinner... 😂

Rotisserie chicken, celery, chives, grapes, nuts- pecans are best, mayo, sour cream, lemon pepper. Optional - diced apple.

Dang that looks delicious and easy!

He really should let the chicken sit and rest to room temperature before putting in the fridge as it will increase the temperature in the fridge itself. Also I’m one of the few I guess that probably disagrees with a croissant being the bread of choice. I real French croissant should be light, airy, flaky, and buttery. The light and airy quality with the flakiness doesn’t really work with a chunky mayo based protein. Also the tomatoes take away from the herbs and celery, onions, and grapes within the salad itself. Less is more.

Made this minus nuts (daughter is allergic) for years. The grapes just take it up a notch. Another great salad is can tuna, small cubes of cheddar and small chopped sweet apples. Sounds like an odd combo but it's really good.

Lawry’s is the go-to seasoning that can’t be beat. It’s so darned good.

I use walnuts

I have been making chicken salad like this for years...so good. I have found that this is Amazing with Smoked Chicken. The Best I've had yet.

The red grapes make all of the difference with that touch of sweet. Newk's makes a salad almost like this one. I think it's very healthy too.
