- 15 minutes to make
- Serves 10
IF you are still poaching chicken for salad, you are missing out! What makes this chicken salad unique is the way the chicken is prepared, and it is flavor-packed! And it is ADDICTIVE! Disappears before you know it. Read more ..great in a wrap, on a croissant, on triscuits, or standing at the open fridge with a spoon!! Make the night before, it's worth it when the flavors have married the next day. See less
Ingredients
- about 3 lbs chicken, I use b/s breasts most of the time shopping list
- olive oil shopping list
- 2 T margarine shopping list
- 2 t. chopped garlic shopping list
- seasoned salt shopping list
- garlic pepper shopping list
- McCormick's Citrus Grill seasoning shopping list
- 1/2 a lime shopping list
- 1/2 a lemon shopping list
- 2 gala apples, chopped - I put the chopped apples into pineapple juice while I chop everything else to keep them from tunring brown, you can also squeeze lemon juice over them. shopping list
- 1/2 med. white onion, chopped shopping list
- 1 large bunch, large, ripe, green grapes - sliced in half, lengthwise shopping list
- 1/2 small package sliced almonds shopping list
- 1 small can mandarin oranges, drained well and patted dry (optional) shopping list
- Dukes Mayo shopping list
- sour cream shopping list
- ** sometimes I stir in some orange zest, or a combination of orange, lemon and lime zest - when I think of it. ** shopping list
How to make it
- Drizzle Olive Oil in large skillet with 2 T margarine
- Add chicken, frozen or thawed
- Season both sides of chicken with seasoned salt, garlic pepper and citrus grill.
- Brown chicken on each side, then turn skillet to low and allow to cook until done (20 minutes or so if frozen).
- While chicken is cooking, squeeze lime and lemon over each side
- When cooked through, remove from heat andlay on paper towel lined plate, place in fridge to cool.
- Cut chicken into bite sized pieces and put in large mixing bowl
- Add apples, onion, grapes, and almonds,
- Add mayo and sour cream a little at a time until desired consistency (May also use vanilla yogurt for a healthier option)
- Stir in almonds
- VARIATION
- My mom can't eat apples anymore, so, I add mandarin oranges when I fix it for her...drain well and pat dry...no need to chop as they fall apart when mixing...they hold water though, and make for a slightly runnier salad.
- Serve as salad, in a wrap, on great bread for sandwiches
