A delightful twist on the classic Waldorf-style chicken salad, this recipe combines tender chicken with crisp apples, crunchy walnuts, and a creamy dressing for a refreshing and satisfying dish.
Combine the cooked and shredded chicken, diced apple, chopped celery, and toasted walnuts in a mixing bowl.
Ensure the chicken is cool before mixing to maintain the crispness of the other ingredients.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Pour the dressing over the salad base and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the apple pieces.
Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Chilling enhances the flavor and texture of the salad.
Serve the salad on a bed of lettuce or with crackers for a delightful meal.
Garnish with additional toasted walnuts for extra crunch.
