CHICKEN SALAD WITH ORZO AND MARINATED ARTICHOKE HEARTS
This is a chicken salad with a Mediterranean flair! The ingredient amounts for the dressing can be adjusted, but start with listed amounts, all other amounts for this recipe can be increased if desired. The capers and currants are optional, but I like to add them in. This is the perfect salad to serve to company, it has lots of flavor! If you are serving more than 4 people then double the recipe. Plan ahead the salad needs to chill for 2 hours before serving. Can use leftover turkey in place of chicken.

Received this gem in an email! This will serve well at summer potlucks (with much coming from the garden!) as a side for lovely things off the grill - bluefish, shrimp, maybe even flounder!
