This recipe came about when I accidentally bought dried cherries instead of dried cranberries for another dish. I wasn’t really sure what to do with dried cherries but I needed to use them for something, so I thought they might be pretty good in chicken salad. AND BOY WAS I RIGHT! This is quite possibly the best chicken salad I’ve ever had!
Chicken salad is a very personal thing, isn’t it? Everyone has their own way they like it. Me, I can’t stand eggs in it, yuck! The dried cherries added a nice little flavor to the way I usually make my chicken salad.
Val Original Recipe
Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
2 ribs celery, diced
½ red onion, diced
¾ cup dried cherries
½ cup chopped pecans
½ cup mayonnaise (I use light)
½ cup sour cream (light again)
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 Tbsp. white wine vinegar
Combine all ingredients and let sit for 30 minutes to let the flavors blend.
Serve on your favorite sandwich bread or with crackers, which is my favorite way.
