CHERRY CHICKEN CROISSANTS

I had a similar chicken salad at a restaurant and created my own version. It may seem like an odd combination, but the ingredients work really well together. My children love it, and it only takes a few minutes to cut everything up-so easy!

This recipe is incredibly easy to make, and your family will love it. The sweet pickle relish gives it its signature taste. I like to use a thick, crusty oat bread for this sandwich. -Julie Peterson, Crofton, Maryland

CHERRY CHICKEN SALAD



Cherry Chicken Salad image

After dining at a cafe in Michigan about 10 years ago, I tried duplicating this scrumptious twist on Chicken Salad at home. The cherries can be ordered on-line these days, which makes it much easier for those of us living where cherries are not readily available. Regular milk can be substituted for buttermilk, if necessary.

CHERRY CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH



Cherry Chicken Salad Sandwich image

This recipe is my version of a local restaurants sandwich. I've made this for myself using the frozen cooked chicken breasts and it has turned out very well. I also made a huge batch for a bridal shower. I mixed it in my Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer; it ended up as more of a paste consistency and I had to add more mayo and buttermilk but it was still raved about. For the shower I served it on Hawiian sweet dinner rolls.
