My creamy chicken salad recipe combines tender chicken, celery, nuts, dried fruits and plain creams. It’s great now to enjoy, but over time it improves, making it a great option for cooking food.
I love this creamy chicken salad, especially crispy nuts and dried fruit. They add so much texture. The secret of this chicken salad is his creamy dressing mayonnaiseLemon juice, mustard and sesame oil (trust me). For more than classic recipes, see our Easy chicken salad with herbs.
This salad is perfect for remnant chicken or take our advice for chicken for chicken salad. For more such salads, see our Easy Tuna SaladTo be in style egg saladand my favorite Smashed chickpea saladA number
The main components
- Chicken. Use one of our easy recipes for remaining chicken, rotis chicken or chicken recipes as Easily poached chicken (lasts 25 minutes), The whole chicken cooked (Preparing chicken of broth and super competition for about 1 hour), and All fried chickenA number
- Celery and herbs. They add crunches, color and freshness. I crush my celery quite small. For herbs use what you have. I love parsley, bullet, dill, tarragon and mint.
- Nuts and raisins. I love sliced almonds and gold raisins, but you can always replace them with your favorite nuts and fruit. Walnut is excellent as well as fresh fruit such as ground apples or half-grapes.
- Milk sauce. Dressing for this salad could not be much easier. Combine mayonnaise with fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt and pepper. Then add a piece of fried sesame oil with a little more taste (we also use sesame oil in our clothes broccoli snuggle) You can exchange mayonnaise for simple Greek yogurt for Major Free Salad. It tastes a little more tampered but yet to taste perfectly. We also have this Vegan mayonnaise recipe If you are interested.

I love this creamy chicken salad, especially crispy nuts and dried fruit. He quickly took a few days in the refrigerator. We highly recommend fried sesame oil. It wears a pleasant Umami fragrance to dress. It’s a little long way, so add only a few bitches (no more than 1/4 teaspoon). When we have time we make chicken breasts for this salad.

Adam and Junny tips
- Storage: When it is stored in an airtight container, the chicken salad stays in the refrigerator 3 to 4 days, which is wonderful news, because I mentioned above, but one day it tastes better.
- In addition to or as a substitute for dried fruits, add a handful of fresh fruit such as half-grape or chopped apples.
- For a lighter chicken salad, exchange mayonnaise light mayo or use simple or Greek yogurt.
