'loaded' Crunchy Chicken Salad Pita Sandwich

Mon, 16 Feb 2009 01:33:51 -0500

While on a calorie-counting quest, I put together this chicken salad 'loaded' with celery, onion, and shredded carrots (which contain very little calories). The almonds give it a little extra crunch, and the cranberries are just sweet goodness :) I listed 'creamy Italian dressing'. For this, I made Creamy Italian Dressing #34649 and added 1 tbsp of honey mustard, using 2 tbsp of this mixture in my salad. -- posted by afghanmom

Delicious and superhealthy seasonal summer salad.

Whisk together the lemon zest and juice, thyme, oil and garlic paste. Season and drizzle over. -- posted by English_Rose

Cumin Chicken & Avocado Salad

Thu, 05 Mar 2009 16:16:06 -0500

A pinch of chili gives this a nice kick, perfect in the garden with a few Mexican beers. This has a slightly Mexican flavour, combining warm chicken tossed with cumin and chili powder, kidney beans and creamy avocado. The tomatoes are slightly cooked too, so their juice bursts into the Caesar dressing as you cut into them - delicious. -- posted by English_Rose

This is a combination of two different recipes I found in my collection of cookbooks - I thought the cinnamon flavours through the chicken would work well with the fig salad - it turned out gorgeous! Not too much preparation - only 20 mins for marinating. -- posted by Dibs McC

Grilled Chicken and Avocado Salad

Sun, 08 Mar 2009 17:27:13 -0400

One of my favorites to fix during the summer months. I believe this recipe originally comes from Martha Stewart. You can use either a grill pan or an outdoor grill to cook the chicken. I prefer the latter. It's best if you can prepare the day before serving. -- posted by Beth A.

Publix Chunky Chicken Salad

Mon, 09 Mar 2009 14:21:00 -0400

I got this a long time ago from the Publix Mayonnaise label. I think it is the same one they used to have in the deli there. This is great to take for potlucks, new moms, or grieving familes. I often double it. This is more of a salad to eat on a bed of greens and not so much to put onto a sandwich although I have put it into a pita before. Preparation time does not include cooking the chicken or carrots. Cooking time is the chilling time. -- posted by DeniseBC

From Food & Wine April 2009. Prep time includes marinating. According to Food & Wine "Hearty main-course salads tend to pair best with a wine that has some body (lighter styles get a bit lost).

My husband and our friends absolutely love my chicken salad! I originally got the recipe from my father, but have adapted it slightly.

Chicken-Apple-Walnut Salad With Honey Mustard Dressing

Fri, 20 Mar 2009 02:32:01 -0400

Served at the 1870 Wedgwood Inn in New Hope Boro, Pennsylvania, this simple chicken salad combines common ingredients in a less-than-common way, and with great results. If you happen to have some cooked chicken in your fridge (or perhaps a rotisserie chicken), you could probably save time by simply shredding that and using it instead of the freshly cooked diced chicken. NOTE: Cook time is chill time for the prepared salad. -- posted by Lynne the Pirate Queen

Grilled Chicken Barley Salad

Mon, 30 Mar 2009 17:40:32 -0400

Wonderful salad/main dish that we often go for on a hot summer evening. Serve with crusty bread and a glass of wine :) The olive oil accounts for 20% of calories in this recipe - for a lighter version you can substitute some of the olive oil with lemon juice. UPDATE June 28 - I agree with both reviewers - the recipe is better with less oil. I am reducing the oil and increasing the lemon in the recipe - so pleae note that the new version reflects this change -- posted by Deantini

Everything is to taste so feel free to make any adjustments/additions or subtractions you like.

Warm Balsamic Vinegar Chicken Salad With Goat Cheese

Thu, 09 Apr 2009 01:41:02 -0400

I was looking for a way to use my expensive Balsamic Vinegar and Goat cheese. Here it is! You can substitute any greens in this salad, it really seems to be the vinegar that makes the salad. I tried putting some raw mushrooms in this and it didnt go too well, Ive also tried adding raw tomatoes to the end product of this salad as well as the cooked ones and that seems okay. If your kale is too bitter or weird add a smattering of salt or lemon juice. If you dont have white wine add whatever (decent) wine you have. You don't have to use fresh ground salt and pepper but I always do. -- posted by Aspenwall

I bought some dried mango from a food market today and wanted to see if I could do something different with it.

The recipe could easily be scaled up to feed more. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

I prefer using two jalapenos (SEEDED) but if you want only a very little spice to it, just use one. I wouldn't skimp on any of the ingredients, they all make this salad what it is.

Rosey Daley's Grilled Chicken Salad

Thu, 20 Aug 2009 01:55:15 -0400

This is an oldie-but-goodie, from "In the Kitchen with Rosie: Oprah's Favorite Recipes" by Rosie Daley, who was once Oprah's personal chef. Bursting with flavor, this salad only has 176 calories per serving. It is delicious and I admit, I had forgotten about it as I had lost the book in one of my many moves and recently ran across it again. Perfect to help you slip back into that little black dress...without feeling like you're eating cardboard. Notes: Marinate the chicken in the seasoned lemon juice, soy sauce and garlic mixture for up to 2 hours; the longer it marinates, the more flavorful and tender the chicken. For variety, substitute an equal amount of lime or grapefruit juice for the lemon juice in the marinade. -- posted by Epi Curious

Sarasota's Light Version of Pasta Caesar Salad With Chicken

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 01:43:02 -0400

This originally came from a cookbook which I sold. I think Cooking Light or Prevention Magazine, but I just copied the recipe on a index card so this is all I have. Besides I think I changed a few things along the way. Well, regardless, I loved this because it combines all the flavors of a caesar salad without the calories. The arugula bumps up the flavor and the dressing on this is light and simple but still full flavored. Now originally it didn't have chicken but one day I had 6 or so chicken tenders and decided to pan saute them and add it to the salad. I love the extra flavor of the breaded chicken to the salad. -- posted by SarasotaCook

Basil-Arugula Salad With Chicken & Prosciutto

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 11:53:42 -0400

This is a salad-ified version of a chicken pasta dish I had once at Cheesecake Factory. It is both hearty and light, and rich with complex flavors. The basil adds a pesto-like element to the ensemble, and the dijon in the dressing (modified from Mille® 's Dijon Paremsan Dressing, recipe #21008) brings out the peppery taste of the arugula. Because prosciutto is rather salty, be stingy with salt on this. The prosciutto should offer just the right amount. -- posted by SJBG

Prosciutto/Chicken Breasts/Eggplant Panzanella/Raisinvinaigrette

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:11:42 -0400

"Chef Barbara Lynch's take on saltimbocca gets its richness from Taleggio* cheese, which is stuffed in the chicken breast. A slightly sweet bread salad is served with the chicken." Bon Appetit Magazine, September 2009 Edition. The real name of the dish is: Prosciutto-Wrapped Chicken Breasts with Eggplant Panzanella and Raisin-Pine Nut Vinaigrette - with "Taleggio cheese that is a semi-soft, washed-rind cheese from the Valtaleggio region in northern Italy, near Lombardy. It is characteristically aromatic yet mild in flavor and features tangy, meaty notes with a fruity finish. The texture of the cheese is moist-to-oozy with a very pleasant melt-in-your-mouth feel. The combination of the soft texture, pungent aroma, and buttery flavors has proven to be addictive especially when spread on fresh crusty bread! Taleggio pairs nicely with Italian Nebbiolo wines, as well as a wide range of reds & whites." Cooling times have not been included. -- posted by Manami

Caesar Sauce Chicken With Hearts of Palm

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 11:37:58 -0500

Caesar chicken salad with potatoes. Nice summer meal. The salad dressing is a good low fat dressing that can be used alone. This is from Butter Buster's Cookbook. I believe chicken broth would be a fine substitute for liquid butter buds. -- posted by Princess Lisa

Chicken Salad

Thu, 04 Feb 2010 16:27:55 -0500

An easy throw together chicken salad that has the right amount of crunch from the fresh vegetables. Great for brunches, wedding/baby showers, or any picnic & get togethers. This salad goes great with Whole Wheat Ritz crackers or on toasted Rye bread! Chicken can be left chunky if preparer would prefer it that way. I feel the chicken stays better on the cracker/toasted bread if ground up a little bit. Can be served after chilling for a few hours or made a day ahead and chilled over night. -- posted by Mrs. Kristin
