CONTEST-WINNING SUMMER CHICKEN SALAD
I found this recipe many years a go in a church cookbook. It's special enough for a fancy dinner but easy enough to fix for a light lunch. There's a kick to the tangy citrus dressing, which even my picky son enjoys.

This chicken can be done in the oven or it is excellent in the slow cooker also. The sauce is so delicious and I suggest serving it over pasta, noodles, baked potatoes or with some good French bread.
