Poached Sesame Chicken Salad

Poached Sesame Chicken Salad

“I could eat this everyday. The poached chicken is cooked perfectly and shredding it instead of cubing it lets the dressing soak into every bite. The nutty flavor of the dressing paired with the crunch of the nuts is perfection! This recipe is a total winner!” -unsolicited testimonial from Bruce Golden (my hubby and biggest food critic😉) with a mouthful of Poached Sesame Chicken Salad.

Chicken Salad with Grapes and Toasted Pecans

My whole family loves this chicken salad. You know a recipe is really good when everyone goes back for seconds and thirds. It starts with the chicken being shredded instead of cubed which does wonders for the consistency of the chicken salad. Then in each bite there’s a nutty crunch from the toasted pecans combined with the sweet juiciness from grapes. And the little bit of garlic powder goes a long way to give the chicken salad that extra umph! Warning…this chicken salad is addictive.
