Keyword: Chicken Salad With Grapes Recipe
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 12 cups

Ingredients

  • 5-6 cups cooked chicken shredded (large rotisserie chicken from Sam's)
  • 2-3 ribs of celery chopped fine
  • 4 cups halved red seedless grapes
  • 1 ½ cups finely chopped pecans
  • 1 cup finely diced fresh dill loosely packed
  • 1 cup sour cream* see note below
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon table salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Combine the shredded chicken, finely chopped celery, halved grapes, and chopped pecans in a large mixing bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, fresh dill, salt, and pepper until well blended. Pour this creamy mixture over the chicken mixture and stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld together. This delicious chicken salad can be served in a variety of ways, including on bread, in a salad, wrapped in a tortilla, or with pretzel crackers for a satisfying crunch.

Notes

  • This recipe yields a large bowl of chicken salad, ideal for feeding a crowd or enjoying over several days.
  • If a smaller portion is needed, feel free to halve the recipe.
  • Save time by using a store-bought rotisserie chicken; keeping shredded chicken in the freezer is also a convenient option.
  • Fresh dill adds a unique flavor; while it may seem like a lot, fresh herbs require more volume. Do not pack the chopped dill into the measuring cup.
  • If using dried dill, use about one-third of the amount due to its concentrated flavor.
  • For a taste similar to Arby's pecan chicken salad, omit the dill.
  • Chop all ingredients into bite-sized pieces for easier eating and better blending.
  • Refrigerate the salad for at least one hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the ingredients to chill.
