Steps:
- Turn on stove pot to medium/high heat.
- In a large stock pot place chicken breasts so that they all fit comfortably/loosely in the pot and fill with water until there is about an inch of water above where they sit. Add all tried herbs and 1 tablespoons salt to the water.
- Place pot on the stove.
- After bringing the liquid to a boil, reduce heat to a bare simmer so that only an occasional bubble breaks the surface. At this point, partly cover the pot, cook for about 10 minutes, then turn off the heat, leaving the chicken to finish cooking in the hot water for 10-15 more minutes.
- Remove chicken from water and place on cutting board to cool.
- In a large container mix mayo, grapes, celery, walnuts, salt and pepper (to taste).
- When chicken has cooled to the touch chop into bite sized pieces and mix in with mayo mixture.
- Taste to adjust salt content. Cover and then refrigerate overnight or until cool (the flavors get better over night, but would work for immediate use).
- Spoon onto croissants or your favorite bread.
WEDDING SHOWER CHICKEN SALAD
My friend's mom made this for a wedding shower for ME! Still blissfully married after 23 years, I thought I would share this recipe. We love it still, on a warm afternoon with iced tea and sometimes on a hot evening with a toasty Chardonnay.

BRIDAL/BABY SHOWER TUNA/CHICKEN SALAD
When I got engaged, at my bridal shower we served this salad and everyone loved it. I then started making it for my friend's bridal showers. It is a great hit and has a wonderful taste. Definately different from the usual salads. I usually cut up all the vegetables the night before so on the day of the party all I have to do is mix it up. Perfect for a crowd.

CHICKEN SALAD FOR FIFTY PEOPLE
This is Toodle's recipe for chicken salad, but I'm posting quantities to feed a crowd. I recently made this for a bridal shower. I had many requests for the recipe. You can make this the day before if you leave out the grapes and add them before serving. This makes about 50 large croisssants. It will make about 75 small ones. But what the heck, the left-overs are GREAT!!!
