This was very good. I added a few ingredients that that I had tasted in chicken and grape salad before that I believe took it to a new level; a little honey and some poppy seeds. Delicious.

I couldn't believe how good this was! And I'm not really even a fan of chicken salad. The very thing I was a little wary of, the grapes, made all the difference! Thank you so much for sharing!

I have been making chicken salad almost like this for years. However instead of almonds I use pecans. After all I'm from Texas. We don't know there are any other kind of nuts.

I followed the advice of chefsingledad cuz I had chicken breast and liquid smoke on hand, worked great! Just shredded it after it cooled. Maybe it's me but I felt like grape halves were too big so I sliced them horizontily. I used yellow onion cuz it's what I had. Does it make that much of a difference? I have a thing against celery so I used celery seed. And dried basil and sliced almonds... it's what I had. 1/2 cup of mayo was enough! AMAZING!

I made this without the celery because I didn't have any on hand...and I didn't miss it! This is the best chicken salad I have ever had. I also took the advice of the first reviewer and just marinaded some chicken breasts in liquid smoke, olive oil, a bit of mesquite seasoning and a little bit of water. Toasted the almonds because I like the flavor better that way, eyeballed the basil and the mayo. I hope that I have enough for lunches for the rest of the week. YUM. Thanks, Kristine!

WoOoWza!! So tasty!! I always my whole life made the same old same old Chicken Salad (mayo, onion, sweet relish, and boiled egg), but recently tried some with grapes and nuts and wanted to find my own to try at home. I went with this recipe, and on the note of another reviewer I added dried cherries. WOW! I followed everything to a T and it tastes great, my grocery store was out of fresh basil so I used dry and this recipe is FANTASTIC just as it is, how wonderful that you shared it! Also on a another note, I used one of those chopper things and prep time was a breeze, even for the almonds!!

I did not have celery which may have given this recipe 5 stars; however it was still very good. I also used canned chicken, no smoked chicken on hand and in a time crunch. It was still worth the effort and still very good!
