Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 Whole stewing hen -- stacked and cleaned
Or 2 Cups Cubed Cooked Chicken -- See Below
1/2 Cup diced celery
1/2 Cup chopped walnuts
1/2 Cup mayonnaise
1/4 Cup chunky bleu cheese salad dressing
*this is the secret ingredient
1/4 Teaspoon salt
1/4 Teaspoon onion salt
pepper -- to taste
Combine chicken cubes, celery, and walnuts in a medium glass bowl. In a
small bowl, mix remaining ingredients and spoon over chicken. Toss
thoroughly. Cover and chill for at least two hours.
Cooking chicken: For really moist and delicious chicken try the following:
submerge whole chicken in large pot of rapidly boiling water. Return to
full boil. Cover tightly and turn off heat. After one hour remove chicken.
Allow to cool before removing meat from bones. Cube. Refrigerate.
How Dianne does it: I use boneless skinless chicken breats...poack in a little water. Dice. NEXT time I will add cooked potato cubes (as for salad) and some grated fresh carrot. Not that there is any problem with the original but it will make it a meal in a bowl...Also, when I make the original recipe again I may toss in some seedless grapes.
Notes: *Recipe from BETWEEN A WOK AND A HARD PLACE, a culinary mystery by
