Chicken salad is a classic salad recipe with diced chicken, creamy mayonnaise, crisp celery, green onion, sweet grapes, and fresh herbs. But there's a little something extra in my version that makes it the ultimate chicken salad - tarragon!

This recipe is easy, healthy, bright, flavorful, and will make any summer meal a breeze. Give it a try!

    Hi guys - hope you love this new recipe! It's easy, healthy, fresh and full of flavor. I've been eating it on repeat for the last several weeks! 😂 So how would you eat it? Straight out of the bowl, in a sandwich, or in a wrap? xo - Lisa
  • I am cook at a senior living home. I made this recipe for the residents the other night. It was excellent. I was nervous that poaching the chicken with onion and parsley would make it taste like chicken soup, but it gave the chicken this great rich flavor.
  • @elissakartman
    Thank you so much for demonstrating how to perfectly poach chicken. The basis for salads, wraps, tacos, etc. The exact method really works - and at 72 years I finally learned how to do it. I wrote it down, because my memory isn't what it used to be. Your chicken salad recipe looks awesome. I have tarragon on my permanent shopping list. Thank you so much. Elissa

    This looks perfect for summer!! Sounds so good to have this as a cold wrap ☀️
  • Congrats Lisa!! I just wanted to thank you for all the delicious and new recipes you provide for us but more than that for changing our eating habits daily.
  • @samsiegelct
    Huge congrats. Thanks for creating such a vibrant community. It’s been amazing following you since I started meal prepping in college TWO years ago! Woah, didn’t realize it had been that long!
  • This looks so amazing! I love a healthy alternative to a classic!
  • Love this delicious recipe. I love celery but for non-celery lovers who still like the crunch, I soak celery in a bit of lemon juice for a couple of hours. This retains the crunch and makes the celery taste sort of fruity.

  • @joniibryant6462
    I just made chicken salad last week! I cooked my chicken in the slow cooker, used half plain nonfat yogurt and half mayonnaise, with walnuts instead of almonds. It was so good! Chicken salad is a nice break from tuna and seems a little classier if you want to share with guests. Love this version though. I'm definitely going to try it next time I'm making up a batch.
  • This is so delicious, filling and healthy. My family went nuts over the fresh homemade chicken salad. Thanks for sharing this recipe
  • @lfa4166
