Best Fruity Creamy Chicken Salad Recipes
CREAMY CHICKEN SALAD
I modified the original recipe for this chicken salad to make it healthier. The ingredients are so flavorful that my changes didn't take away from the taste. This refreshing salad never lasts long at our house. Even if I double the recipe, my husband asks, "Why didn't you make more?" -Kristi Abernathy, Lewistown, Montana

FRUITY CHICKEN SALAD
This chicken salad can be made with many different variations of fruit. It is also a hit as a dip when served with Town House crackers! Also try currants in place of the raisins.

Steps:
- Put the chicken in a large pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium. Allow the chicken to simmer until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken to a cutting board. Use a pair of forks to remove and shred the meat from the chicken. Discard the remains. Place shredded chicken in a single layer on a plate and allow to cool completely in refrigerator, about 15 minutes.
- Stir together the salad dressing and sugar in a large bowl. Stir the chicken and raisins into the salad dressing. Add the mango and gently fold into the mixture. Refrigerate overnight or 8 hours before serving.

FRUITY & CREAMY CHICKEN SALAD
I love chicken salad and was playin' in the kitchen one day and created this recipe. I was low on mayo so I extended it with creamed cheese. Yummy! I think I now know how those deli chicken salads taste so creamy & rich. The addition of grapes and apple, or pineapple send it over the top in goodness. I learned the hard way not...

Steps:
- 1. In a large bowl, whisk together softened creamed cheese, salad dressing, & mayonaise until creamy and smooth. Add the S S & P. Prepare all veggies & fruit and fold into creamy mixture. Lastly, fold in the prepared chicken. You can roast a whole one or bake chicken breasts yourself or use a deli chicken, skinned, boned and cut in cubes. When salad is all mixed refrigerate for several hours so flavors will marry.
- 2. Make this salad your own by adding different fruits other than what I used. This is great served on lettuce leaves, a half an avacado, or just by itself. Enjoy!

FRUITY CHICKEN SALAD
The amounts listed are only a guideline since I don't even bother measuring please feel free to adjust all ingredients to suit taste but please try not to omit anything all the ingredients blend together perfectly! You could use all mayonnaise but I prefer half mayonnaise and yogurt or sour cream for a lighter texture, if you are making this in advance then add in the diced apple just before serving. If you are a curry-lover then try adding in 1/2 to 1 teaspoon curry powder into the mayo mixture, I think you will be quite surprised at the taste! This is one of the best recipes for chicken salad!... For a luncheon, double or triple the complete recipe and serve this on a bed of lettuce with tomato wedges around the chicken salad then sprinkle more toasted almonds on and around the chicken salad... your guests will rave!
