Gourmet Chicken Salad - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 1/2 cups cooked chicken, diced and chilled
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup seedless grapes, cut in half
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup pecan halves, chopped or 1/4 cup slivered almonds
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
Preparation
-
In a medium bowl, whip cream to soft peaks.
Combine meat, celery, grapes, dried fruit and nuts (or Salad Pizazz), parsley, salt and mayonnaise with whipped cream. Chill.
Note: Instead of using the dried fruit and the nuts, I always use Salad Pizazz which is a gourmet salad topping that can be found in grocery stores and comes in a variety of flavors. For this salad I like to use the Cherry Cranberry Pecano, the Orange Cranberry Almondine or the Raspberry Cranberry Walnut Frisco.
