This was something Charlie and I were talking about the other day. We've never made chicken salad sandwiches before. Heck we don't ever eat them either. I have them occasionally at showers or other get togethers when they are served but lately I've been craving them. So this is something I really want to try sometime soon, especially now that summer is coming up.
Ingredients:
6-8 plain croissants
3 cups cubed poached cooked chicken
1 1/2 cups grapes, sliced in half
4-5 diced spring onions
2 stalks celery, diced
8 fresh basil leaves, minced
3/4-1 cup mayonnaise or Miracle Whip
1/2 cup roughly chopped cashews (or sliced almonds if you prefer)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
salt and pepper
lettuce leaf, to dress the sandwiches
havarti cheese, to dress the sandwiches
Directions:
Mix mayo, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and basil together till well incorporated. Fold in chicken, grapes, cashews,celery,and onions. Halve the croissants (you may wish to slightly toast them) and layer with salad, lettuce, and cheese if you wish. Serve immediately.
