Lori's Chicken Salad

Total Time: 1 hr Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 10
  • 2 -3 lbs frozen skinless, chicken tenderloins
  • olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon margarine
  • 2 teaspoons chopped garlic
  • seasoning salt
  • garlic pepper seasoning
  • mccormick's citrus grill seasoning
  • 1/2 a lime
  • 1/2 a lemon
  • 2 gala apples, chopped
  • 1/2 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 1/2 lbs green seedless grapes, sliced in half, lengthwise
  • 2 -3 ounces sliced almonds
  • 1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained well and patted dry (optional)
  • kraft mayonnaise
  • sour cream

Recipe

  • 1 drizzle olive oil in large skillet and heat to med. high.
  • 2 add 1 t margarine.
  • 3 add chicken, frozen or thawed (if thawed, i cut into bite sized pieces first).
  • 4 season both sides of chicken with seasoned salt, garlic pepper and citrus grill.
  • 5 while chicken is cooking, squeeze lime and lemon over each side.
  • 6 when cooked through, remove from heat and lay on paper towel lined plate.
  • 7 cut chicken into bite sized pieces and put in large mixing bowl.
  • 8 add apples, onion, grapes, almonds, and oranges (no need to chop oranges, they will fall apart as mixing).
  • 9 add mayo and sour cream (two mayo to one sour cream) a little at a time until desired consistency.
  • 10 stir in almonds.
  • 11 *note - the oranges add a great flavor, but they do make for a slighly runnier salad as they hold water. i also will sometimes squeeze a slight amount of lime into the salad, which gives great flavor, but also makes for a thinner consistency dressing.
  • 12 serve as salad, in a wrap, on great bread for sandwiches.
