THE MOST VERSATILE CHICKEN SALAD - 2011 VERSION

Tonight I bring you the 2011 version of the summer dish that started out as a chicken and artichoke salad, then became in turn a chicken and grilled courgettes salad, and a chicken with fresh and grilled vegetables salad.  

This time I've gone back to marinating the chicken escalopes in balsamic vinegar before griddling them and I have added the contents of a jar of grilled yellow peppers, a jar of artichoke hearts and a jar of chiodini mushrooms.   Oh, I almost forgot - I added some salad leaves too!  As usual, I made up a dressing from 3 - 4 tablesp olive oil, 1 tablesp balsamic vinegar, 1 tablesp Sicilian orange blossom honey, dried oregano, seasalt and black pepper:

  3. As always, it looks delicious. And it makes me so hungry at midnight! I'll have to use Canadian Honey, of course. And it will be the first time I put artichoke hearts in a salad. I printed your 4 links "Chicken Salad", to make sure I don't miss one vegetable and condiment. I'm starting to have quite a collection of your food presentations. Many thanks, Welscakes.

  7. Thanks, Claude. I'm sure Canadian honey is delicious, too. I'm very flattered! Thanks, cuby poet. I like the term "yumscious". Glad you both like the look of it, Saretta and jams.

  8. I thought I did my late lunch chicken nicely but it pales by comparison. Sigh.
