"This is a recipe that always seems to be used at our family gatherings. Everyone loves it. It's also great to make ahead for busy days." — mrsjoedo

Directions

Cook bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate and allow to cool; crumble.
Mix cooked chicken, crumbled bacon, water chestnuts, celery, and red grapes in a large salad bowl.
Whisk mayonnaise, dried parsley, lime juice, onion powder, ground ginger, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper together to make a smooth dressing.
Pour dressing over chicken mixture and stir to coat.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate until cold, at least 30 minutes.

We really enjoyed this - however the 1 1/2 cups mayonnaise seemed like too much - I made the dressing using 1/2 of mayonnaise but kept all the other dressing ingredients the same. It has just right. I served this on top of toasted ciabatta rolls - like an open faced sandwich. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

This Chicken Salad was a hit with my friends...I omitted the water chestnuts (simply because I don't like them) and I substituted one half of the mayo with salad dressing. We used whole wheat croissants for sandwich bread. Delicious!

My husband is very hard to cook for, but I decided to try some things that I like and he can eat something else. We both loved this recipe and he has already asked me to prepare it again.
