The BEST Chicken Salad
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2024
- This easy chicken salad is the BEST thing ever for a warm day when you want a delicious meal without turning that oven on. Grapes add just the right amount of sweetness while toasted almonds, celery and even a bit of green onion add crunch. A drizzle of aged balsamic vinegar and a splash of lemon juice bring a wonderful depth or flavor and tang to round out this chicken salad.

I LOVED this healthy chicken salad recipe on it's own but it's AMAZING in a sandwich or on top of a bed of lightly dressed greens!

I made this delicious recipe yesterday, and we love it, my husband told me is the best chicken salad had ever had. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I so appreciate when someone has made the recipe then let’s us know what you think
I'm not a fan of grapes and apples in any of my chicken salads, so I leave them out. Dude, the addition of the balsamic vinegar is masterful! I used just a touch; enough to lie in the background. So good! TY!
Lemon juice is common, just as good.
I have about ten cooking channels I watch here and I think this is the best one. It's easy to watch, you're charming, and I learn a lot. It covers cooking AND baking and the recipes are so incredible!
What else do you watch/
@@cinm9565 Sam the Cooking Guy, Darren McGrady, Epicurus, Jaime, Kitchen Sanctuary, Essen Recipes, Pailin's Kitchen, Ramsay, All Recipes, Natasha's Kitchen. Actually I shouldn't say this is "the best" since it's all apples and oranges. Let's just say Preppy is my fav.
@@mikemorrissey5467 thank you, I will check the channels out!
@@cinm9565 btw, 'Views On The Road' is great too if you like authentic Mexican food. I haven't seen anyone top that one yet.
John, you knocked it out of the park AGAIN with this recipe. I have made several things you have shared and every one has been delicious and is now part of my regular repertoire! If someone doesn’t give you a cookbook deal or your own TV show, something is wrong with this world! Thank you!
Made this last night and loved it. I can see how one might eat an entire bowl of this, it's fantastic!
Steve Murphy the combinations he uses are great.
I made this for my company Pot Luck luncheon! It won Best in Show from all my coworkers!! It’s delicious. I didn’t change a thing. The recipe is perfect and everything he said it is!!
It’s been 3 years and this salad is still AMAZING! Memorable!
I wanted to share that I have made this repeatedly for years. I had never had tarragon before but gave it a chance and this has become one of my favorites. I always look forward to this. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
Every time I watch a video (and I’ve been binge watching the last week) my grocery list gets longer and longer! Can’t wait to try this one!
I know what you're saying. even if I don't plan on making anything, I just love watching him.
I know right? And plus I get fatter and fatter.
I like how you give a recipe with precise measurements - and for almost every single ingredient go "do what you like!"... Because that's how cooking should work; do what you like, make what you like to eat.
But obviously a precise recipe is probably a good starting point for people who want a bit of guidance or are perhaps not too comfortable just winging everything in a kitchen. And this sounds like a tasty recipe. (And salads are always so easy, especially because they are normally so forgiving, time-wise. No "if you don't eat it within the next 5 minutes it will be ruined!"...)
I'll need to try the mayo-balsamico combo. Sounds brilliant!
amazing! i didn t have all of the ingredients, green onion and celery but i used green bell pepper instead of celery and it turned out great
😍❤️😍 thank you for this amazing recipe
I made this recipe exactly as listed, and it came out so delicious! It tasted like a fancy chicken salad you would be $20 at a hipster cafe! "Husband-approved!" this will be our go to chicken salad recipe!
I made this and the family devoured it! Thank you!
I add red grapes cut in half, chopped walnuts a bit of dijon and fresh dill weed. It's one of my family's favorites! I'd really like for you to make a Savarin, Religieuse & puff pastry. These aren't difficult & it really makes a difference when you make puff pastry as well as Choux pastry. For those who love to bake, being able to explore the unbelievable items that are made in kitchens elsewhere as easily as we make cakes here. It's wonderful to learn different things and your family will enjoy reaping the benefits!
The best chicken salad!! So unique and delicious. That balsamic gave it superpowers.
Yes! A fellow brown meat lover! You’re seriously the first of your kind to say you like brown meat. Kudos 😘
I just made this and it was really good. I would recommend halving the mayo. Great recipe. Thank you.
I’ve made this every summer since the year this was posted! It’s absolutely amazing! 😍
I just made this last week with my own recipe. I put half sour cream and half mayo to lighten the heavy taste of mayo. I am going to put balsamic in next time. What a great idea. I also like the Harvest Chicken salad at Mcallister deli (chain restaurant) and the tarragon chicken salad at Publix (grocery store) So good.
I'm a big fan in Belgium and I love your recipes/videos! Two particular favourites that have become part of my regular rotation are your Avocado, Citrus, Burrata Salad and this Chicken Salad. I don't know if you take requests but I would love to see your take on the Nicoise Salad. :-)
🎶"....mind your fingers..."🎶 💓
This salad would so good on its own, but it looks like it would be delish, mixed with some (Bowtie) pasta, for a nice chicken pasta salad.
I JUST made this and it’s deeeeeelicious!!! 😋 great recipe! Thank you 😊 🤗
SO happy you like it too!!
I made this yesterday and it is delicious thank you - more like this please - great for lunch in the week xx
I get the rotisserie chicken bag from Costco and this is amazing for that nice Sunday summer meal with a toasted bun and chips on the side. Yummy.
That’s exactly what I was thinking of using for this recipe! Thanks for posting that😊
We are having this tomorrow for supper with my Mommy and daddy going to be bussin bussin
You got me, this is now the way I make chicken salad. Never used the tarragon in this before but love it now. Thank you for all these videos. Your the best.
I just made this salad and it was amazing! The balsamic...unbelievable!! I did sub out the mayo and used plain yogurt though (I hate mayo) and I think it worked really well. Thanks for the amazing recipe! Absolutely love your videos and your sense of humor!!
Amanda Klaiber Thanks for the tip. I am not crazy about mayonnaise either.
Thanks! Let me know how you like it with the yogurt if you try it!
Amanda Klaiber - I will probably try it on Thursday. I will keep you posted. I love trying new recipes.
Yogurt 👍 yes!! I've been tummy sensitive to Mayo after turning 50. Eggs issue but plain yogurt sub works. What a refreshing salad & thanks for dried cranberries idea, John as the tartness sounds aaaaamazing! Cheers!!
I make a similar salad but add sliced water chestnuts for a light crunch. Thank you so much!
That sounds so good!😋
The Apple peeler song is precious lol. You can tell he’s a dad.
The dad evidence doubles when, in the end, he can´t find the peeler and uses a knife.
@@shaymaamahmoud6739 🤣🤣🤣
@@shaymaamahmoud6739 he used the peeler though girl ☺️
@@finlaymackenzie6678 When? He even has a song about where the peeler is
He has a husband...
I just want to taste this...now..... Love your work John!
You ate an entire batch -- and you still look like a model! How do you stay in such terrific shape when you cook so many wonderful cakes and other delicious foods??
Sashine B. Yeah!! I want to know too!!!
@@monicabermea Yeah, c'mon, John, tell us your secret!
Ditto!@@sashineb.2114
Can he explain shirtless. How many in favor?
Ms. Elite no his teeth look too good for that
This recipe has been an absolute miracle in my weight loss journey! Thank you!
My favorite part of every video...”Let’s get started!” I love the way you say it lol.
I made your chicken salad with my Thanksgiving turkey leftovers! I don’t like green onions and didn’t have balsamic vinegar this time. But it was delicious! Love the Tarragon like you said! The salad is delicious on Brioche Bread or a red leaf and romaine lettuce salad. Thank you!!
And yes, I also could eat the entire batch over the day. Breakfast, Dinner, and Tea! Lovely new recipe to use with the balsamic.
Have been watching this video once a week for the past 4 weeks, lol, and finally made it this morning for this afternoon.. made it with everything minus the balsamic vinaigrette.. was so delicious, but next time I'll definitely remember the vinaigrette.. thank you so much for this recipe; I am in love!!
When you picked the chopped celery, I was literally waiting for you to eat it.😂
Me too
I make a chicken salad that has pasta and cheese with the grapes and celery that everyone loves might try toasted almonds as a addition
I am making this salad this week for a fun getaway weekend with gal pals. Made the cheesy Biscuits yesterday so we can enjoy them both together!
I’ve done something similar but, used pecan pieces. So good!
I love watching you cook!
HI John, I made this salad ,it was the best
chicken 🐔 salad ever. Thank you.
Looks like a very yummy recipe I need to try soon. Your balsamic vinegar looks more like a balsamic vinegar reduction. Thicker then regular balsamic vinegar and so good.
Actually, good balsamic vinegar IS thick like that. The crap balsamic you see in supermarkets is balsamic mixed with red wine vinegar.
brilliantatbreakfast thank you! I learned something! I thought the only way to get it that thick was to reduce it down. ( I will treat myself to a small bottle of better balsamic vinegar now. )
@@smileytow1925 What you're looking for in the ingredients is "grape must" and ALL grape must. You don't want to see thickeners, colorings ("caramel color") or red wine vinegar. Be prepared though, good balsamic is EXPENSIVE. Some helpful links:

www.seriouseats.com/2014/05/everything-you-need-to-know-guide-to-balsamic-vinegar.html
Good balsamic is worth the money. You won't use a whole lot of it, so a $30 bottle of balsamic should last you quite a while.
You are a great cook and pastry chef
this is super satisfying chicken salad meal... inexplicable yummy & delish
Definitely going to try this...for slicing the grapes protect your hands sandwich the grapes between 2 small plates then glide the knife through 😉 looks very tasty 😋
Just made this chicken salad and it is absolutely fantastic. What brand of balsamic vinegar was used in the original recipe?
I only eat mayo in 2 things: tuna fish sandwiches and bacon ranch pasta salad, but that looks so delicious that I might try making and eating it. Thanks for sharing.
I love John and his recipe! And his Clark Kent look ❤️ the balsamic vinegar is a cool touch!! I wanna try!
This looks super yummy! Not a huge fan of sweet things in chicken salad but I might give us want to go for the summer😍
I am from texas so sometimes i use Whataburger jalepeno sauce , usually in devil eggs though . My mothers usual add ins were pinapple , pecans , raisins tarragon ( lol i typed it as you said it ) cranberries are my favourite add in .
Made a version of this today- however being from the UK some items arent common so had to make alterations depending on that and what i had in the fridge. (Spring onions, carrots, cucumber, sweetcorn, apple and mixed herbs from the garden. Thats also quite alot of mayo by UK standards as so i swapped about 2/3rd of it for fat free yoghurt. It was amazing. Would definitely make again!
Oh and added dried cranberries as per your suggestion rather than grapes!!!!!
I made this 2 weeks ago my family love it and made it today and it was same reaction with family. Love all your recipes made your carrot cake and took it to family event everyone love it. I also made chocolate chips cookies also they were delicious. Thank you
Too funny ... going over my chicken salad recipes. My fav uses lemon and tarragon. Thanks for posting, John. Hope you and your family are having a great summer!
Great salad for summer or any season, any day, any occasion......
Excellent video. Thanks and bless you .......
Looks sensational and the smell of Tarragon and Thyme with chicken is Heavenly and all the ingredients that you put together for this salad are heavenly. 💕
I will try this mid week for dinner and add some avocado and use reduced fat Mayo as I dislike mayonnaise. 😁
Thank you kindly.
This looks GOR👏GEOUS👏! And so easy. I'll be making this all summer. ❤
I appreciate the work you make, Your recipes amaze me every time and you make me craving them I try to do them and I get out the same way I hope you will not stop cooking or filming❤️
Made this yesterday with some leftover turkey. Fantastic! We ate the whole batch,
I came back for this recipe after 4 years 🥺✨🙌🏻
Looks yummy, something different for summer.
I know. The salad looks good too!!!
Never thought about adding taragon. I must try this next time. Thanks again, John.
Looks really good, I think that I would have to add a little bacon to the mix. I live in the south so instead of almonds I use pecans.
I just bought some chicken breasts, guess what's getting poached and turned into you re delicious 😋 chicken salad. I'm gonna give those Muscat grapes at try, nice addition thanks!👍👌Watching 👀 you do your thing in the kitchen puts in a very zen/ happy frame of mind.🙏😔
Im more than just not a fan of mayo but i hate mayo so I tried making it one time using sour cream, onions, celery, salt & pepper instead but it was to bland. I love the idea of using Almonds & other ingredients so hopefully I can finally enjoy chicken salad. Thanks ❤
Power grinders are amazing! I would definently recommend
Love tarragon in chicken salad😋😋😋
Made your Apple pie! Family loved it! Love all your recipes....you ought to have your own show on the food network channel!
Thank-you ever so much for this amazing recipe and also for your simple to follow steps. First time I tried making anything like this so it's credit to you it was a success on both occasions that I made it (Monday 14/06/2021 and Thursday 17/06/2021). Needless to say, this recipe is going to feature frequently in my future. Thanks again x
Oh yes... this definitely looks ahhhhmazing! Thanks for the recipe!
I named my band “little salty pockets” thank you
We live in Arizona, this is a perfect salad for the triple digit weather! Thanks!
I love fruit in my chicken salad. Apples if not grapes. Yum 😋
Also, using honey wheat wraps, with some arugula.
Its very easy and looking yummy thnks chef..
This guy is not a chef. He's an amateur cook. Difference. Chef is a title that is earned.
@@charlietrone4761So what ? he has a experience of cooking specially pastry and I learn from his recipes...I am an Indian ...thnks
I'm glad I watched this. I have a chicken salad recipe ever one raves about, but I'm excited to try something new. It's an interesting flavor combo!
Made this last night. Delicious! Everyone loved it.
Dear Chef John,
I just had to come back on to thank you for this extremely delicious Chicken Salad recipe! I made it yesterday for some of my girlfriends yesterday for lunch. I’ve been making Chicken Salad probably before you were born... Never in a million years, would I have thought to add Balsamic Vinegar! I honestly can’t believe the huge difference it makes! It’s mind blowing deliciousness is incredibly! The only thing that l did differently was, l pouched my children with a onion, celery and salt and pepper. I did however use breasts and thighs, l enjoy dark meat too. ♥️👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Omg I love this recipe!!!! And I love Mayo 😁
Delicious recipe!! I changed the mayo to sour cream to make it more healthy!!
Yum!❤
Thank you John I had try this recipe turn out tasty and my family loved it and finished all .🙏♥️
Admits to eating an entire batch. I look forward to seeing MORE of John in the future.
I use those rotisserie chickens from Walmart for everything. Can’t wait to try this recipe. Thanks💜
I used cramberries and almond sliced or a lemon pepper green onion combo or an apple terragon almond
in brazil we call it "salpicão" and there's many versions of it! :)
Looks delicious and healthy! Need to try it😋
Thank you very much for the great recipe.
This is the best chicken salad I've ever had wow thank you so much for the recipe 😄
I'd make this salad anytime 🤩-and I want your tea pots,so lovely😍
Love love love this salad recipe.
Your recipes are just amazing... The decent way you make your videos is 😍😃😃
I like to make it with no sweet elements but with pickles and other pickled foods like garlic or carrots or onion. Plain dill pickles
I really love your channel!
I made this tonight. So tasty! Tons of flavor.
Love this chicken salad recipe and had everything in the house except vinegar only (apple vinegar) l added red onion really fine and a little more celery. I think that would be the perfect mixture for pasta salad and I too don't like food loaded with mayo
Thank you so much , i was browsing for a recipe for a chicken salad and the way you presented it made me want to eat it right away, I just subscribed, keep up the good work it was delish!!!
Love your receipes and the way you do your videos.. so down to earth😀 could you share some warm/ winter salads please.. 🙂🙂🙂
CHICKEN SALAD OMG SO GOOD
I am DEFINITELY going to try this
Hi John can you make some desserts that are not as bad for people that to watch the sugar intake. I want thank you for your videos. Have a great day.
I’ll add mangoes and garlic chips to mine when I make it this weekend 😁💕💕💕
