I was reading the other reviews about this chicken salad being too salty and I think I know why...the recipe calls for kosher salt...it's bigger than regular salt..so when I and alot of other people use the regular salt..it was too much and too salty!But other than that..it was sooo good!I'm defintley making it again!

This chicken salad was delicious! I had to make two substitutions (used a peeled, diced granny smith apple instead of grapes and used fresh basil instead of tarragon simply because I didn't have those ingredients on hand. Nevertheless,
it was so flavorful and very gourmet tasting.
Thanks Ina!

I just finished making this and having it for lunch. I wanted to go back for seconds and thirds. As I didn't have grapes, I substituted a gala apple. (and of course, added salt and pepper to taste This is a great way to change up from boring traditional chicken salad.

No shame on Michelle. Shame on Ina that she can't simply say when adding salt to something that it is kosher salt and there is a difference. Not everyone can see the show everyday so may not know that.

Easy and light. The sour cream is excellent in making the salad taste fresh.

This is another excellent recipe from Ina but she sure does love her salt.
Instead of 2 teaspoons, try just one. I did it with the 2 she suggested and found it very salty - too salty.
Enjoy!

This is it. The perfect balance of flavors - the sour cream is killer! I followed previous reviews and just salted to my taste - which is slight for sure. I even used dried herbs as I didn't have fresh - still killer! My hunt is complete. And this seriously could not be easier!

I have made this chicken salad recipe several times, and it always turns out great. Sometimes I may not have walnuts, but have pecans, or vice versa, but I just use what I have. I also have a difficult time finding fresh tarragon, so I use dry. This is one ingredient that you must not leave out. It gives the salad a unique flavor.
