Last night Jen and I attended a tapas party that was a lot of fun. The food was amazing and I had the night off cooking. I asked a friend of our’s to be a guest on my blog with her recipe for the party and this is a MUST TRY!
Brooke’s Chicken Salad on Croissants
3 skinless/boneless chicken breast
1 tablespoon dill weed (she prefers to use the dried spice in her recipe)
1 – 48oz can of chicken broth
1/2 cup of mayo
1/4 cup sweet pickle cubes
salt and pepper
In large pot add chicken broth and 1/4 cup of water over high heat.
Cut the chicken breast into strips.
Add the chicken to the pot.
Boil for 25 minutes and then remove from the pot and let cool.
Shred the chicken into a bowl, which Brooke did by hand.
Add dill weed to the bowl.
Add salt and pepper.
Add pickle cubes.
Add mayonnaise. Depending on how you like your chicken salad, you may end up adding a little more mayonnaise until the mixture gets to the right consistency.
Mix all indgredents well.
Time to assemble, cut the croissants in half and add chicken salad.
And there you have it-one of the best chicken salads I have had. Thank you Brooke for sharing your recipe and being a guest on my blog. Here is picture of the two of us before we headed to the party.
Tonight Jen and I have date night so I am not cooking. We are going to eat dinner at CHOPS – one of my favorite resturants in Atlanta. Tomorrow we are going to see Art and Melanie who just a baby girl and I am going to grill out for them. Check back tomorrow for recipe and pics!
Happy Cooking!
