I've gotten a lot of compliments on my chicken salad. Here's the recipe:
Catt's Chicken Salad
4 - 6 chicken breasts
1 rib of celery, diced fine
Olive oil
Mrs. Dash
White pepper
Salt
Parsley, either fresh or dried
Mayonnaise to taste (must be real mayo, not salad dressing like Miracle Whip, for example)
First, stew the chicken breasts - if you are using bone in, stew for 45 minutes
to an hour - if you are using boneless, stew 20 minutes. Let cool in the
stock/water. When it is cool, remove chicken and chop into bite sized chunks. In
a Tupperware dish or Ziploc bag, place chicken, a few teaspoons of olive oil, a
tablespoon of Mrs. Dash, 1/2 a teaspoon of white pepper, a tablespoon of
parsley, and just a sprinkle of salt. Then toss to coat, and refrigerate for at
least an hour, or overnight.
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - boiled
1/2 cup raisins
1 cup thinly sliced celery
3/4 cup seedless grapes, quartered
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
1 avocado - peeled, pitted and diced
1 tart apple - peeled, cored and chopped
1 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
DIRECTIONS:
In a large bowl toss together the chicken, raisins, celery and grapes. Fold in the avocado and the apple. Mix in the mayonnaise and lemon juice. Chill.
I like to chop the stuffed green olives and add to tuna and mayo.
