Summer Pecan-Chicken Salad Recipe #302950
A great summer dinner with grilled chicken and rice. The original recipe came from the GA Pecan Commission. It's so easy and really great on hot summer nights served with a little corn bread and a chilled dry, white wine.
*For the salad dressing I use Recipe #225142
and for the Creole Seasonings I use Recipe #22089
