Pinterest Review #2*
This chicken salad is from Simply Recipes. Click here for the original recipe. Because I roasted my own bell pepper and then added some wild rice it was a little more work than I was anticipating. But, I really liked the simple but distinct flavors brought together. You could definitely leave out my additions and it would be a fast weeknight meal.
I didn't have any chicken stock, so I poached the chicken in water with onion, carrot, and salt. It worked fine. But, make sure you cook gently or you'll be eating rubbery instead of tender chicken. I was cooking for a friend ho doesn't like raw onions, so I sweated the red onions. Also, I dumped the dressing and then realized it was too much for my taste. I would recommend adding a little bit at a time.
Like any chicken salad, this keeps really well. It would be a great salad made Sunday night and then used for lunches throughout the week. Or, it would be a great pot luck dish.
Enjoy!
