I don't know why this picture makes the salad look red. It's not red, but it is delicious. It's really a pretty basic chicken salad recipe, but there's one important difference: Whipping Cream. You whip cream and add it at the end and boy, does it make it yummy!!! I love easy summer, no cook, delicious meals. We enjoy this as a sandwich in a croissant. Add sliced avocado and it's over the moon delicious!
Neiman Marcus Chicken Salad (Slightly altered)
4 cups cooked chicken, diced (I used rotisserie chicken, but breasts only would be good, too)
1 cup mayonaise
1 cup diced celery
1 cup grapes, halved
1 Tablespoon chopped parsley
1 bunch green onion, chopped (opt: this wasn't in the original recipe, but I think it needs it)
1 tsp salt (more or less, depending on how seasoned the chicken is)
Pepper
1/2 cup toasted chopped almonds or cashews
1/2 cup whipping cream, whipped
Combine all except the whipping cream. Gently fold in the cream after all is mixed together. Serve on croissants or on a lettuce leaf.
