My Uncle Wiley lives in Winter Haven Florida. We try to visit him a couple of times a year. I love to cook, so I cook while I am there, unless we are going to some of the great restaurants in the area. But he makes the best chicken salad I have ever eaten. I brought this recipe home with me. My family and friends absolutely love it, so I thought that I would share it with you.

Yum, Uncle Wiley knew what he was doing with this chicken salad recipe. It's creamy with tender, juicy chicken. Crispy grapes and crunchy pecans add a lovely texture to the chicken salad. Craisins add sweetness and tartness that put the flavor over the top. The addition of sour cream to this chicken salad adds a delicious tang that we can't get enough of. This recipe makes a lot so come hungry!

How to Make Uncle Wiley's Chicken Salad
- Poach chicken (boneless skinless) breast. This takes the longest amount of time. I often cook my chicken the day before and store it in a Ziploc bag in the fridge. When you are ready to make the salad you dice the chicken.
- In a large bowl mix all of the ingredients; salt and pepper to taste. You may need a little more mayonnaise.
- I serve it with crackers or it makes a great sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes.
