TARRAGON CHICKEN SALAD
Already have a go-to chicken salad recipe? No matter, you're still going to want to give this one a try. Our Tarragon Chicken Salad isn't quite as straightforward as a classic chicken salad recipe, but it's well worth the extra ingredients and preparation. The recipe starts with a host of crunchy goodness thanks to chopped pecans, Granny Smith apples, celery, and red onion. The dressing is livened up with the addition of the zest and juice of a lemon and chopped fresh tarragon. While the tarragon might be a little outside of your comfort zone, we definitely think you should give it a try. Just one little ingredient can take your ho-hum recipe to the next level-and tarragon is just the ticket in this chicken salad recipe. Be sure to toast the pecans before adding them to the dish; the crunch and flavor that results will be well worth the quick effort. Make our Tarragon Chicken Salad for your next baby shower or bridal shower and it will be the hit of the party. Just be sure to whip up an extra batch to have at home too-you won't be able to resist this stuff.

BEST CHICKEN SALAD EVER
This recipe uses canned chicken, but if you want to use leftover chunked chicken or turkey, it 's even better. A dab of sweet relish is a nice taste surprise, and we love the apples, pecans, and raisins. The creamy salad dressing finishes it off nicely.

Steps:
- The day before, gently fry the bacon in a large non-stick frying pan for 30 minutes, until the fat turns golden. Lift on to kitchen paper to absorb excess fat, and leave to cool and crisp. Crumble into pieces and chill.
- Put the oil, vinegar and 1⁄2 tsp each salt and freshly ground black pepper into a screw-top jar. Put the lid on securely and shake the dressing, then keep in a cool place (not the fridge or it will go cloudy).
- Half an hour ahead, add the tarragon to the dressing, and shake until well mixed. Tip into a bowl and toss with the chicken, radishes and bacon.
- Tear the lettuce roughly and arrange on a platter. Snip the cress with scissors and sprinkle over, then top with the chicken.

FRUITY CHICKEN SALAD WITH TARRAGON
Chicken salad often finds its way to my summer menus, served on greens or a croissant. I think this one is just a little special. It's sweet and juicy from the apples and grapes, a little savory from the tarragon, crunchy from the pecans and celery, and lightened up a bit with some yogurt.
