I loved this salad. Im a vegetarian so I substituted soy chicken and made it exactly the same way and it turned out great!

this was ok, I guess I just prefer the mayo based chicken salad.

Oh how I wanted to love you Cilantro Chicken Salad! As a cilantro fan, I thought this would be the best chix salad of my life. Unfortunately, I found that the poaching process didn't add additional flavor to the chicken, but alas, the cilantro addition was too overwhelming. I tried in a salad, plain and in a sandwich and although as a part of a lettuce salad was the most palatable, it was a disappointment overall.

GOOD GOOD GOOD...I had left over chicken from a previous recipe (unbelievable chicken) so I used those pieces to make this salad. I love cilantro so I added a little more than it calls for. I didn't have the anchovy paste so left it out. GREAT chix salad. Will definitely store in my "do again" recipes.

This was pretty simple and quick to make. It looked a little bland and lifeless, but the taste was anything but! It had nice flavor and didn't make you feel heavy and full. I will be making this one again!

I was looking for a light chicken salad without mayo, and this satisfied. It was delicious tossed with spinach and shredded carrots. I only shredded two chicken breasts into the lime mixture; next time I'd double the dressing if using all four chicken breasts. Added a splash of rice vinegar to the lime juice. To improve even more, I'd add a dash of sesame oil to give it a bit more Asian flavor, and perhaps a bit of minced green onion. Nonetheless excellent, and a wonderful base for ideas.

This recipe was awesome! I added quite a bit more cilantro for more flavor. It was served over vermicelli noodles as a cold pasta salad.

The addition of pine nuts made it even more delicious. It made a good filling for lettuce wraps.

Excellent! Great summertime dinner. Chicken was moist and light. I served with slices of tomato and avacado and jersey lettuce on tortillas. WONDERFUL! Thanks

Made some changes after reading the reviews. I marinated the chicken in soy sauce and chicken broth, and we grilled the chicken at a very high temperature to make it just a little crisp, but still tender on the inside. I mixed the rest of the ingredients as a dressing and served the chicken strips over a green salad. It was fabulous!

Very flavorful recipe. I used leftover chicken and reheated it in the sauce like it called for and then just followed the recipe the rest of the way. I served it over sliced, slightly seasoned avocado and it was wonderful.

This was somewhat edible. I love lime, cilantro, garlic, and chicken salad. I ended up making just a little bit of this and trying it before I added the dressing to all of my chicken (i was a bit skeptical- thankfully!). It just wasn't good. I used the rest of the chicken for regular chicken salad (with mayo)

This was so great! Loved the really strong flavors of garlic, cilantro and anchovies! I used anchovy filets instead of the paste, as that is what I had on hand. Delicious with a bean/rice salad, and would be good in wraps-- our new fave!

A light, summery recipe. I didn't pay attention to the directions and put the lime zest into the salad, but it tasted great.

We really enjoyed this. The flavors are very light and refreshing. This would be a perfect summer supper salad. I ate it over fresh baby greens. The teenagers mixed it into some stir-fried sesame rice noodles, as well as ate it over the fresh greens.

This is not too bad, but I find that the ingredients in which the chicken was cooked (chicken broth etc.) were pretty much wasted; that process did nothing for the chicken. If I try this again, I will use those initial ingredients as a marinade. The rest of the salad was pretty good; I served it over fresh spinach and Jasmine rice. My sons and husband liked it more than I.
