McAlister's Chicken Salad Recipe
Creamy, crunchy, and just the right amount of sweetness—that’s what makes McAlister’s chicken salad so addictive!Poaching the chicken keeps it from drying out, but shredding it while it’s still warm helps it absorb more of the dressing.Instead of using all mayo, I mix in a little bit of sour cream for a smoother consistency.Pecans and celery add a great crunch, but the best part is the burst of sweetness from fresh grapes.This is the kind of recipe that works just as well piled onto a croissant as it does straight out of the bowl!
