Categories Bread Salad Sandwich Chicken Fall Simmer Boil

Yield serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 large whole chicken (4 1/2 to 5 pounds)
9 to 10 cups chicken broth or water
2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup sweet pickle relish
2 cups chopped apples
2 cups halved seedless red grapes
1 cup chopped pecans
8 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

Place the chicken and broth in a large pot, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer gently until the chicken is cooked through and the meat is ready to fall off the bone, about 45 minutes.
Using tongs, transfer the chicken to a plate; set it aside until it is cool enough to handle. Then pull the meat from the bones in large pieces, discarding the skin and bones.
In a large bowl, combine the chicken with the mayonnaise, relish, apples, grapes, pecans, and eggs. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well. Serve over greens or in a sandwich.
