101 Reviews of Charlie's Famous Chicken Salad with Grapes

From: Colby's Mom

On Nov 25, 2005

Excellent! I used leftover Thanksgiving turkey. I added dried cranberries as well just to keep the Thanksgiving theme going and it was very tasty that way.

    I found this chicken salad to be great! A lot of interesting textures going on. I used toasted slivered almonds and the crunch really made the salad special. I added a bit of chopped parsley. Next time I'm going to try cilantro I loved this and I will definitely make again.

    Thanks for posting! This is a very traditional southern(USA) recipe. I dry roasted my pecans, which really brings out the flavor of the pecans. If you don't have miracle whip, try adding about a teaspoon of lemon juice and a half teaspoon of sugar to regular mayo. Thanks again. Great summertime recipe!!

    This is so good. Perfect in summer. Although I did change the Worcestershire sauce to Lea & Perrins for chicken. I liked that taste better. It is good both with and without the nuts.

    I have been searching for a recipe like this. It was good. I did add an apple. I think next time I will leave out the celery and cut back on the onion a bit (or use a sweeter one). Thanks!

    I used this recipe for an appetizer at a skin care party I held at my home...it was a hit! I used canned chicken instead of cooked chicken for convenience and I used fat free Miracle Whip and both red and green grapes. I served it inside a loaf of Hawaiian bread that I dug out the middle of to place the salad in. It was awesome! No one ever noticed I had used fat-free anything! I had to include the recipe when I delivered everyone's skin care orders!

    This is already a favorite with my family. I loved the balance of all the ingredients and the Worcestershire sauce is the secret and special ingredient. A perfect lunch for brown baggers who have access to a refrigerator. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

    This chicken salad was just wonderful! We thought the nuts added a special touch. The grapes also added a nice sweetness. I will be making this quite a lot, I'm sure. Thanks for posting this recipe.

    I really enjoyed this, it's a different and delicious way to prepare chicken salad. I left out the nuts because I don't care for them. I love the extra 'wang' that the grapes and Worcestershire add. Thanks for the recipe!

    Awesome and Thank You. I used cashews since I had them on hand. I remember this recipe from a deli in CT (or close to it). I found a need to add a bit more salt and some pepper, but that is for my taste. Again awesome, I doubled the recipe and stored some in vacuum bags so that it last through the week. Was so sick of the commercial sandwiches at work, what a nice change, will have some on crackers and a nice sandwich for lunch. Thanks again for sharing. The Worcestershire sauce was a great addition, just enough with over powering the salad. Very satisfied.
