Title: Basil Chicken Salad Categories: None Yield: 1 Servings 3 c Cooked; cubed skinless -chicken breast 1 1/2 c Diced celery 1/4 c Chopped scallion or chives 1 c Sour cream 1 1/2 c Fresh basil; chopped Ground black pepper Salt This is one of my favourite luncheon meals. I serve it on a bed of fresh spinach leaves, garnished with orange slices. The recipe originally called for low/non fat sour cream, but I found that the sour cream tends to go runny if it's left for several hours so I tried a combination of half nonfat/half fullfat. That seems to work well. Of course, for those of you not calorie concious, you could use all full fat sour cream! :) This does taste better if it's refrigerated at least 3-4 hours before serving but overnight is even better. In a large bowl combine the chicken, celery, chives, sour cream and basil; mix lightly with a fork. Just before serving, add pepper and salt to taste. Posted to EAT-L Digest by Enza Wall |
