GOURMET CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whip cream to soft peaks.
• Combine meat, celery, grapes, dried fruit and nuts (or Salad Pizazz), parsley, salt and mayonnaise with whipped cream. Chill.
• Note: Instead of using the dried fruit and the nuts, I always use Salad Pizazz which is a gourmet salad topping that can be found in grocery stores and comes in a variety of flavors. For this salad I like to use the Cherry Cranberry Pecano, the Orange Cranberry Almondine or the Raspberry Cranberry Walnut Frisco.

CLASSIC CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICHES

Steps:

• To bake boneless chicken breasts, preheat the oven to 350 F. Line a baking pan with foil.
• Arrange the chicken on the pan and season lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Bake until the chicken registers 165 F on a food thermometer. Depending on the size and thickness of the boneless chicken breasts, it will take 22 to 30 minutes. Let cool and chop.
• To poach boneless chicken breasts, place chicken in a single layer in a deep skillet or sauté pan.
• If desired, add some herbs and chopped aromatic vegetables, such as onions, garlic, or carrots. Cover the chicken with water (about 1/2 to 1 inch above the chicken breasts) and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pan, and continue cooking for 8 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken pieces.
• Check the chicken breasts with a food thermometer to ensure they are done to at least 165 F. Let cool and chop.
• Once you've cooked the chicken, gather all of the ingredients.
• In a medium bowl, combine the cooked, chopped chicken, onion, celery, and egg. Stir to combine.
• Add 1/3 cup of mayonnaise, the dill pickle relish, salt, and pepper to the chicken. Stir to blend well.
• Add more mayonnaise to moisten, if desired.
• Serve on bread with lettuce and enjoy.

CHICKEN AND FENNEL SALAD SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Roast chickens:
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Rinse chickens inside and out and pat dry. Stir together salt and pepper, then sprinkle over chickens inside and out. Put 1 tablespoon softened butter evenly under skin of each breast, then rub remaining tablespoon butter over skin of each. Arrange chickens in a 17- by 12-inch shallow heavy baking pan and roast, switching position of chickens and rotating pan halfway through roasting to help cook evenly, until thermometer inserted into fleshy part of each thigh (do not touch bone) registers 170°F, about 1 hour. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Discard skin and bones from chickens, then coarsely shred meat and transfer to a large bowl.
• Make dressing and assemble sandwiches:
• Stir together mayonnaise, yogurt, zest, lemon juice, fennel seeds, salt, pepper, and basil, then pour over chicken in bowl. Add chopped fennel and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve chicken salad in rolls.

• from aunt elsa's kitchen
• Aunt Elsa would make these ahead of time for a party and refrigerate them for a few hours or freeze them for up to a week and remove them from the freezer the morning of the event. Her secret was to spread a thin coat of butter on the bread, which prevents the sandwiches from getting soggy without changing any flavor.
• To make ahead, spread a light coat of butter on one side of each slice of bread. After slicing as directed above, cover the sandwiches with wax paper, and then cover with a damp towel. Refrigerate until needed.
• For longer storage, cover the platter of sandwiches with plastic wrap and freeze. Uncover the sandwiches and let stand at room temperature for a few hours before serving.
