My husband and I love this salad. I like to make it on really hot days it's so easy and refreshing. Sometimes I put it over lettuce or serve with a good bread. I use only 2 chicken breasts without the skin and cover with foil so the breasts do not dry out and then I half the dressing ingredients. Thanks Ina for this simple delicous summer salad.

What I like abut Ina's recipes is you can change them up according to your tastes and they are still terrific. I used a leftover grilled chicken breast and chopped everything in the food processor because that's how I like chicken salad. Just a couple of tablespoons of mayo and a squirt of mustard were enough. I did use white wine to thin it out. Yummy!

THIS ISN'T IT! I tried this 3 different ways...here are my tips:

1. There is entirely too much dressing for this amount of salad- Half the suggested amount!

2. Cubed chicken doesn't work in this house...it must fit on a croissant, piece of bread, or cracker. Throw all of the ingredients in the food processor. The consistancy is MUCH more tolerable this way!

3. Ina suggests letting it sit for 4 hours....I would say it should sit oververnight AT LEAST.

My husband and I were finally able to enjoy eating this chicken salad on the 3RD day...

** You'll like it once you make these adjustments :

I drastically reduced the Dijon, wine, and mayo, (used a light mayo as well too to save a few kcals. I used my food scale to measure one serving of each and 1 tbsp of the wine.
When I noticed the dressing was a little sparse I added 2 tbsp of fat free sour cream. This blended very well and stretched the dressing. All together my dressing registered in at 80 kcals for 2 servings.
I substituted red onion for the broccoli and served over baby spinach.

I watched this show today on dvr and Ina did say not to use all of the dressing, but to save some in case you need more later. So this may help those who felt there was way too much mayo for their taste.

Might as well eat mayo straight from the jar. Also, diced chicken? Gross. Reminds me of Subway.
