Pioneer Woman's Chicken Salad

  • 6

Ingredients

  • 1 whole fryer, cut up and poached
  • 2-3 stalks celery, chopped
  • green (or red) grapes, cut in half (as much as you'd like, really)
  • fresh chopped dill
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup plain yogurt or sour cream (I used sour cream)
  • tablespoon or 2 fresh lemon juice
  • tablespoon brown sugar
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • pinch cayenne pepper

Preparation

Step 1

After chicken has been poached and cooled - cut into small chunks. Toss in a large bowl with chopped celery and grapes (I also added some chopped pecans.) In another bowl, mix mayo, yogurt, dill, lemon juice, brown sugar, salt and pepper, and cayenne together. Pour over chicken/grape/celery mixture and toss to coat. Let sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 or 3 hours (overnight is best) so all the flavors can "marry". Pioneer Woman adds that you can also add some chopped bacon if you want! Yum!
