Chicken Salad Tokay Recipes

BASIC CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Place almonds in a frying pan. Toast over medium-high heat, shaking frequently. Watch carefully, as they burn easily.
• In a medium bowl, mix together mayonnaise, lemon juice, and pepper. Toss with chicken, almonds, and celery.

CURRIED CHICKEN SALAD WITH GRAPES

Steps:

• Place chicken on rack inside a 9"x13" pan. Rub breasts with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper and Mrs. Dash (or similar seasoning).
• Roast until no longer pink, about 45 minutes.
• Cool until easy to handle. Remove skin and bones. Shred meat into bite-sized pieces. (Shredding instead of cubing allows the dressing to adhere to the chicken more easily.).
• Meanwhile, combine dressing ingredients. Taste often to reach desired outcome.
• Combine chicken, celery and grapes. Toss with enough dressing to coat, allowing for a little extra as the chicken will absorb some while melding in the refrigerator.
• Best chilled overnight, but it is still great if you can't wait that long.
• Serve alone or with rolls for sandwiches.

COLD CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Boil noodles. Rinse with cool water.
• 2. Chop all ingredients and set aside. I have made this various ways when it comes to the chicken. You can boil a chicken breast, use a can of shredded chicken, chop 3 chicken tenders from the store or use rotisserie chicken. I usually use the rotisserie as then I get 2 dinners out of one chicken.
• 3. Mix together the mayonnaise, Miracle Whip, and spices.
• 4. Add to a large bowl and toss with the pasta, chicken, onion, and celery. Chill for 1 hour.
• 5. Serve with a roll for a great lunch or dinner.
