Notes on a Chicken Salad & Guest Posting!
>> Saturday, 18 July 2009
Over the years I’ve made quite a few chicken salads and I’ve experimented with various cooking methods as well as various parts of the chicken all in a quest to find the most effective way for the chicken to remain moist and flavourful. There's a particular cooking method I prefer coupled with a particular cut of the chicken that gives me the results and flavour I am looking for. Click here to read my Notes on a Chicken Salad. The recipe can also be found at the bottom of the column.

What a beautiful chicken salad. It looks so fresh! That exact recipe would also be wonderful with shrimp.
I love that part about you and your sister chewing the bones--what a great detail.
I love a good chicken salad. It's pure summer on a plate. Lately, I've been liking it especially on a good artisan roll slathered with mango chutney.
as usual, looks delicious.

That chicken salad looks and sounds absolutely wonderful!
Thank you for sharing.
I also prefer poaching for a moist and flavorful salad ,looks very appealing :D
What a lovely chicken salad!
So yummie too!
salads are the toughest for me, even though it seems like just throwing some stuff together
I used to work for a coffee-shop where we'd also do our own baking, salads, and sandwiches. We slow-broiled chicken for our chicken salad. The broiled chicken fell from the bone, it was so tender, and just needed to be shredded by hand. Add a bit of garlic aioli and you had chicken salad. Yum!
It sounds delicious. I have never tried poaching the chicken so must try it.
I love chicken salad classic and also curried chicken salad with raisins and slivered almonds and chopped apples.Yum. Homemade mayo or Hellman's. It's also delicious with mayo and fresh dill.I love your version also Cynthia.
Looks fresh, moist and very flavorful, Cynthia. I will definitely try making it your way. Have you heard of Foodista?

Poaching the chicken woild keep it so moist and flavourful, excellent combination Cynthia:D
Delicious looking chicken salad.
Wow, that salad looks awesome!!
Just read your guest post on RM, the fried rice looked awesome too, one dish that's versatility allows it to be adopted so easily into any other country's cuisine!
I have always roasted my chicken, but I can understand your idea of rather poaching the chicken and flavoring the broth!! I would gladly put a heap of that salad in a fresh crispy bun!!!
lovely! just lovely, cynthia! :D
another craving triggered. hehe.
What a delicious chicken salad!! I think this recipe will change hubby's mind over chicken salad!

Great salad Cynthia. I've started eating more chicken recently am in need of some tasty recipes like this.
A great way to use up leftover chicken!
Nice chicken salad. Looks so creamy.
I enjoy chicken salad, but I was amazed to find that my favorite kinds were - bland. Adding fruits and nuts, really didn't do anything for me, but I recently made a chicken salad with shallots, curry powder and mango chutney.
It was to die for, and I was both happy and shocked. I found a keeper! Im going to have to try your chicken salad, to find two keepers in two weeks is notable!
Wow, this is a nice chicken salad...great for the summer...looks really yummie!
cynthia, it is my favorite! looks so delectable...!
The yogurt and mayo in the salad sure tempts me. Looks too delicious.
Recently made the malayasian satay from Rasa Malayasia. Great site for recipes.
Your chicken salad looks really tasty! I love all the fresh veggies you use in it!
This looks like a wonderful summer dinner Cynthia! I'll visit Bee's blog next!

oh beautiful! I love this! What a lovely chicken salad-the dressing is a sure winner!
What a gorgeous and colorful sald! so pleasing to eyes :)
I like that chicken salad--too much dressing is often a problem I run into as well. Good idea to skip the celery--I love it but Tavo can not stand it at all :)
the chicken salad is delicious, but I am heading to Jai and Bee's to get the recipe for the second one... mouthwatering pics Cynthia!
Oh, mouth watering pics Cynth! :)
