We call this “fancy” Chicken Salad, but it’s truly easy. It’s a fresher, lighter version of classic creamy chicken salad with tender chicken, grapes, celery, red onion, toasted pecans, and a creamy lemon-dill dressing. Serve it in sandwiches, wraps, lettuce cups, over greens, or with crackers.
Ingredients
Instructions
Toast pecans in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 3–5 minutes, tossing frequently, until golden and fragrant. Transfer to a cutting board, cool, then coarsely chop.
Combine Salad Ingredients - In a large mixing bowl, combine diced chicken, halved grapes, sliced celery, chopped onion, and cooled pecans.
Make the Dressing - In a small bowl, add all of the dressing ingredients and stir to combine. Add the dressing to taste and stir until evenly coated. Serve right away or cover and refrigerate for 1–2 hours for the best flavor.
