My Favorite Chicken Salad image

I'm a huge fan of chicken salad and have tried so many different variations over the years, but this one is by far my favorite. Simple, refreshing flavors and great texture make it wonderful on a sandwich or just served over a bed of lettuce!

SWEET & SAVORY CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICHES

Sweet & Savory Chicken Salad Sandwiches image

I usually double this recipe and it makes six large sandwiches and about 8 regular size. I created this recipe by changing a similar chicken salad recipe I have, and it's a big hit with my husband and kids alike. Also, I personlly don't like onion or celery by themselves, but I wouldn't leave them out of this recipe. Together, the flavors are all on point.

8 slices crusty bread
1/2 lb bacon
1 1/2 cups white meat chicken, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
1 green apple, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup pecans or 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped

Blend mayo, sour cream, dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, white pepper, and sugar until creamy.
Add dressing to salad mixture, stir until salad is evenly coated and refrigerate while preparing bacon. If your bacon is precooked, let chicken salad chill for 15 to 20 minutes.
Prepare bacon so that is crispy, but not charred. Drain well.
Toast bread lightly, preferably on a griddle with a small bit of butter.
Place a small bed of lettuce on one half of sandwich and heap chicken salad on top.
Lightly press the heap to slightly flatten and lay 2 or 3 strips of bacon on top. Serve open-faced.

SAVORY CHICKEN SALAD

Savory Chicken Salad image

I like the flavor of rosemary with chicken, and it works well in a salad as it does in other recipes. Real easy to make, and great on either sandwich bread or on lettuce for a salad.
