pat's chicken/fruit salad
(2 RATINGS)
Used to serve this at the restaurant and to Baylor College of medicine by special request. Serves 6-8. You can add more of a certain ingredient if you prefer. Wonderful on a hot summer day. I came up with this recipe years ago when looking for a light but tasty summer dish. Salt gives it a bitter taste. ENJOY!!

How To Make pat's chicken/fruit salad
-
Step 1Boil chicken with an onion and celery until cooked completely through. Remove chicken and set aside or refrigerate to cool.Dice chicken and add to large bowl.
-
Step 2Add diced apples, well drained pineapple and grapes to bowl.Mix well.
-
Step 3Add mayonnaise to moisten.Cover and refrigerate for 4 or more hours. Before serving stir and add more mayo if appears dry.
-
Step 4I like to serve in individual scooped out cantaloupe or pineapple halves with a few sugared strawberries as decoration. If desired sprinkle with nuts just before serving so they remain crisp and not soggy.
