I served this on top of bibb lettuce with a side of sliced tomatoes and cucumbers. It was delightful. Use light mayo (and part yogurt if you wish--the recipe loses nothing from the healthy exchange. I also think red onion needs to be soaked in water to soften the flavor. My girlfriends thought I was a culinary genius!

The temps in Holland right now are unbearable. HIgh humidity and temps around 32C (89F degrees and VERY few places with air-co! ! With these temps we like nice light dinners. I thought I would try this recipe this evening. It was quick, easy and very tasty. My husband and I enjoyed it very much. The only tweak I made was to use green onions instead of the red onion in this recipe, just a personal preference. I will definitely make this recipe again, as it is now going in my 'keeper' file. I just might try subbing with leftover turkey when Thanksgiving comes around. Thank you Emeril for another fabulous recipe. You are the best!

I used light mayo and replaced half of the mayo it called for with fat free plain yogurt. Much healthier and still so tasty! Love the bold flavor of the herbs in this dish.

If you like tarragon, you'll love this chicken salad. It's very flavorful and has a nice crunch. This is the first time I'd cooked with tarragon, and unfortunately, my husband realized he really disliked this particular herb. Tarragon has a licorice flavor he really hated. Also, I roasted three split chicken breast with olive oil, salt and pepper at 350 degrees for about an hour (Barefoot Contessa's method for chicken salad. It made a good three cups of really moist chicken, which I thought was the perfect amount for the amount of mayo dressing. Although you might want to add more apples, nuts, etc. Overall, I thought the tarragon chicken salad was very good.

Chicken salad is one of my top ten favorite foods and I've tried A LOT of different ones. This has to be one of the best, but then again, I LOVE tarragon. I substituted pistachios for the cashews because it's what i had on hand, then put them into the salad and really liked it. This is my new chicken salad recipe!

I made the recipe pretty close to the instructions and it got rave reviews. I poached boneless chicken thighs which were moist and tender (I highly prefer dark meat for recipes like this since it has more flavor than bland old white meat.

This is a wonderful recipe. I made it for a luncheon and everyone raved about it. It was even better the next day! I used boneless chicken breasts that I cooked in chicken broth, onions and celery so the chicken was very flavorful itself.
