KELLY'S FAMOUS CHICKEN SALAD



Kelly's Famous Chicken Salad image

This chicken salad is a little different. It has a secret ingredient that makes everyone ask "what is that?" The key to any good salad, in my opinion, is to roast chicken on the bone with the skin on. Give this one a try and let me know what you think! Oh, and one more thing, you can subsitute the celery for chopped water chestnuts ( I did that for a friend who wasn't big on celery). Enjoy!

Basil Cider Dressing - from Kelly's Wedding Salad image

This dressing is posted in Recipe #226217. However, it goes so well with any mixture of vegetables and fruit, that I figured it deserved to have a listing of it's own. I've doubled the ingredients from the original posting. I've been putting this on EVERYTHING! Note: Cooking time is recommended chilling time.
