My 2nd favorite chicken salad on this site - "Fruited Curry Chicken Salad" is the best!! This is a close 2nd though and very tasty. I highly recommend both recipes if you are into chicken salad.

I was disappointed with this recipe because I expected the dried cherries to have more flavor than they did. On the whole, the recipe was great, but the cherries had no taste in and of themselves.

This recipe is wonderful. I never really liked chicken salad until I tasted this. I make it all the time and we are always sorry when it is gone. I have used plain old cooked chicken, purchased grilled chicken breast strips, and even leftover rotisserie chicken. When making it for others, several people always ask for the recipe.

I made this substituting seitan for the chicken and plain yogurt for the buttermilk. I omitted the apples. When I first tried it in a sandwich a few hours later it seemed really bland; the next morning, however, I tried it to see how it had mellowed overnight, and it was much tastier. I had thought I wouldn't make this one again, but now I think I will give it a second go and be sure to make it well in advance of serving it.

Delicious! I served this as lettuce wraps, with no changes to the recipe.

This is a good recipe - I used dried cranberries instead of dried cherries and low fat mayo. I left out the buttermilk but it seemed to be missing something - I think it would be better to use regular mayo instead of low fat. It turned out pretty good and is lasts for a few days.

An excellent recipe. The taste and textures are wonderful and it is quick and easy to prepare if you have pre-cooked chicken. It has become a favorite among my friends and family.

This was really good. We used chopped glazed almonds instead of pecans because we had them on hand. I think it gave it a nice flavor, but I am sure pecans would have been good too.

Quite good. Skipped the apple (though I think it would be a good addition) and used walnuts not pecans. Served on a bed of spinach with balsamic dressing, sliced a few avocados and tomatos... yum.

Absolutely love this! I had cranberries on hand so I used those instead of cherries. I made this before and ate it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I made this again and didn't have the pecans on hand but used some almonds I had, just as good. Also I substituted plain milk for the butter milk. I will make this one again and again, thanks for sharing.

Great flavor and color. Very easy to make. I would recommend cutting the dried cherries in half and cutting the chicken very small.

I love the flavors in this dish. Some people are concerned about using buttermilk - try plain yogurt.

Ooooh this was good! You can pretty much alter this recipe according to your tastes. I lightened it up a bit and was amazed at how delicious it was ... I used FF Miracle Whip (I prefer Miracle Whip over mayo anyway), FF milk instead of the buttermilk, and reduced the salt and pepper by half. I also had to make some substitutions to what I had on hand... I used dried cranberries instead of cherries, and omitted the celery. And I did add the optional apples, I think this is a must. TRY THIS!
