Excellent Chicken Salad! I am not a fan of water chestnuts and I really liked them in this chicken salad. The salt amount was perfect for us, as we are very salt sensitive. I followed the recipe and did not deviate. DELICIOUS! I will make this one again! -
We added more salt and pepper and water chestnuts as it needed something, and that was it. It was very easy to make. Also used fresh tarragon from our garden, yum! Thank you for sharing.
