Creamy Chicken Salad

If you love chicken a lot then this is something you want to try. The best part of this dish is that you can decide what kind of vegetables you want to use and you can even make it fruity!!! Yep! I added grapes to mine and boy oh boy how delicious it turned out!


Ingredients. 

1. 3-6 pieces of chicken breasts ( optional, you can use laps)

2.  2 pieces of green pepper

3.  Green leafy vegetables

4.  1 lemon

5.   Seedless Grapes

6.   Mayonnaise

7.    Carrot (shredded)

8.    Salt

9.     Spices 

10.  Onions ( chopped)


Method. 

1: boil the chicken and include all the spices to the stock. I prefer the chicken to not be too soft. This way you get to chop it more easily.

2. Wash all your vegetables and cut them accordingly. The leafy vegetables should be cut, green pepper-chopped in cube sizes, carrots-shredded, onions-chopped. Also cut the seedless grapes into two equal half's. Do this for the whole bunch.

3. Get a large bowl ready. Squeeze all the juice from the lemon into the bowl. Check your boiling chicken.. Try tasting it to be sure that its okay.

4. Wait for the chicken to cook before chopping it. I always boil the chicken a night before or hours before I am ready to make the salad. When it is cool then you chop into cubes or you can shred it if you like

5. Pour all the vegetables into the large bowl and mix lightly. Leave out the diced grapes at first. Add salt to the mixture then add the chopped chicken and grapes together with the juice from the grapes. 

6. Stir lightly and add some spices if you like. According to your taste you can then add the mayonnaise. Since it is creamy salad I add a lot of it!!!! But hey it depends on individual taste too..at the end of mixing your mayonnaise your mixture should look like this...


After you can serve it with a cold drink if you like...
