Mushroom And Shredded Chicken Salad Recipes

MUSHROOM CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• If you're not using precooked chicken breasts, quickly sear them for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Dice the chicken breasts into small cubes.
• Rinse and drain the peas and mushrooms under cold water.
• Dice the pickles into small cubes.
• Sauté the sliced carrots and onion on a very hot skillet until softened. Allow the veggies to completely cool. Mix all the chopped ingredients in a large bowl.
• Stir in mayonnaise right before serving and season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy!

CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM WEDDING SALAD

Steps:

• Season both sides of chicken breast with salt and pepper. Saute over medium heat in 2 Tbsp olive oil until golden brown and cooked through. Let chicken rest on a cutting board at least 10 minutes before cutting into it. It will be so juicy if you wait! Once chicken is cool enough to handle, dice it up. I sliced it in half lengthwise, cut into strips and then diced the strips. Transfer chicken to a medium salad bowl to cool to room temp. Wipe down the skillet with a paper towel.
• Cut mushrooms into large dice. I used my Vidalia Chop wizard to do this quickly. This by the way is a very handy tool and no one paid me to say that. ;). Saute mushrooms over medium/high heat until all of the water is evaporated then season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to saute and stir until mushrooms are golden brown - remove mushrooms to the salad bowl to cool. Wipe down the skillet.
• Grate carrots and finey dice onions. Saute in 2 Tbsp olive oil over medium heat, or until softened and golden. I burned my carrots maybe just a teensy bit. Transfer carrots to salad bowl to let them cool to room temp.
• Finely dice your baby dills. These add great flavor and crunch to the salad. Don't skip them, k? Add them to the salad bowl.
• Once all of your ingredients have cooled to room temp, stir in mayo. I used about 2 flat Tbsp of mayo. This salad really doesn't need much mayo. Add it to taste.
