Try pineapple juice instead of lemon juice. The mayo and sour cream is good too.

Very good recipe. I'd increase the amount of chicken and stress the lemon juice amount stay at 1 TBSP. Refreshing!

Awesome basic chicken salad. I omitted the nuts since we have a nut allergy in our home. But never the less, it was delicious! I say "was" because I devoured mine!

I really like chicken salad and this is a good one. I didn't have almonds so I substituted pecan halves and my family likes it better.

Sometimes I add a little diced apple to it for a tasty crunch. Sallie

This is so good, and tastes best on an equally basic white bread or cracker.

This is a great basic recipe.I use it as kind of a jumping off point and add Ranch dressing mix (2-3 T) and toast the Almonds.Great every time!

Great base, my great aunt Esther started her chicken saled like this, but added halved red grapes, a couple hard boiled eggs, and about two teaspoons curry powder. The curry adds a wonderful flavor.

This is good! I make it with rotisserie chicken. It's really flavorful and a great way to use up any leftover rotisserie chicken! It's pretty basic and works well with many variations such as waldorf chicken salad with apples, grapes and walnuts.

Delicious chicken salad! I love the nice hint of lemon flavor. I didn't have almonds on hand. I used 1/2 tsp. of garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp. each of salt and pepper. I added a little bit of dijon mustard and dried parsley. I used Hellman's light mayo and let this set in the fridge for an hour before serving.

This was so yummy. I used a little less mayonnaise because my husband doesn't love it in large amounts. He was a happy camper. I will make this again and again.

Good! It was a little more mayo than I would have liked, but it was tasty. I seasoned chicken breasts with thyme and baked to use in this. Nice and simple, just what I wanted. Thanks! :)

This was really great- though I did make a few modifications! I marinated the cooked chicken in the lemon juice in the fridge for about an hour. I shorted the Mayo by about 1/8 of a cup and added about 1/8 cup of ranch dressing. I added about 2-3 Tablespoons of chopped onion cause we like onion. It sat overnight in the fridge, and I topped it with chopped pecans before serving WOW!!

Great recipe. I enjoyed it as is; next time I may add grapes and nuts, but I didn't have any this time. I think the lemon juice makes a huge difference--don't leave it out. Thanks!

This recipe lived up to it’s "basic" name. It was indeed very basic. I tried to rate it on its own merit because if you have to add several ingredients it then becomes another receipe. I will not make it again and will search for a tastier chicken salad receipe.
