This chicken salad recipe contains cooked diced chicken, bacon, halved seedless grapes, mayonnaise, and celery, along with seasonings.

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups cooked diced chicken
  • 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 can (8oz) sliced water chestnuts, drained
  • 2 ribs celery, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup seedless green grapes, halved
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon parsley, fresh or dried
  • 2 tablespoons finely minced green onions
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • dash Worcestershire sauce
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation:

Combine first chicken, bacon, water chestnuts, celery, and grapes in a large bowl; set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients; combine with chicken mixture, using as much or as little as necessary to moisten as desired. You may add a little more mayonnaise if you like a creamier salad. Chill and stir again before serving.

Whole family LOVED it!!!July 19, 2009By Deesellner
"This was the best chix salad I've ever made. The whole family loved it! I left out the water chestnuts, lemon juice and ginger and added a sprinkle of garlic. One big awesome tasting bit was putting the salad on a croissant. We will be making this again and again. Thank you so much."
