LAYERED SALAD FOR A CROWD



Layered Salad for a Crowd image

This salad is a favorite of my three sons. I took it to a luncheon honoring our school district's food service manager, and she asked for the recipe. I like to make the dressing the day before so the flavors blend together. -Linda Ashley, Leesburg, Georgia

CHICKEN SALAD FOR A CROWD



Chicken Salad for a Crowd image

I have made this for bridal & baby showers and the women love it. I serve it on a mini croissant with fancy lettuce. It can also be served on a bed of fancy lettuce greens topped with crispy Chinese style noodles and fresh fruit on the side. Just lovely. When I make it just for the family I wing the amounts (approx. 1/4 to 1/2 chicken breast per person). UPDATE: 8/9/08 Purchasing several rotisserie chickens makes this even MORE tasty! OR be sure to season the water chicken bouillon when simmering the chicken breasts

Time P1DT40m

Yield 40-50 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

18 lbs chicken, bone in, boiled, season water with several teaspoons of chicken flavored bouillon
2 2/3 cups mayonnaise, can use light, not fat free
1 cup half-and-half cream
2 small sweet onions, minced
1/2 teaspoon white pepper (to taste)
4 cups celery, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons beau monde seasoning, substitute celery salt
2 bunches green leaf lettuce, any fancy lettuce
2 cups iceberg lettuce, thinly shredded (optional)
40 croissants

Steps:

  • Boil the chicken breasts until no longer pink. Cool completely and cube or shred.
  • Peel and mince onion. Can use small to medium size.
  • Clean and thinly slice celery.
  • Combine mayonnaise, half and half, white pepper and Beau Monde. NOTE: *I add enough Beau Monde to see scant color in the mayonnaise, chill and let rest while the chicken is cooling. This will allow the flavors to blend.
  • Combine all ingredients with the chicken and cover and refrigerate over night.
  • Next Morning:.
  • Taste test for additional Beau Monde.
  • Add more half & half or milk to thin and make creamier if desired.
  • OPTIONAL: Finely shred iceberg lettuce and add to the chicken mixture. This stretches the amount of chicken salad and makes it lighter in texture.

LAYERED CHICKEN STRIP SALAD FOR A CROWD

This is wonderful to serve to a group of about 8-10 people, great for a BBQ party. and can be all prepared hours ahead. It is delicious! You might want to double the dressing ingredients to serve extra on the side. All ingredients may be increased to suit taste. Make certain that the pea pods are very dry before layering in the salad.
