Joy of Cooking Chicken Salad Recipe

You'll love how this chicken salad combines tender cooked chicken, crunchy celery, sweet red grapes, and tangy lemon juice.
One tip for making this dish even better: make sure to use full-fat mayonnaise for the most luxurious texture.
What makes this recipe so special to me is its versatility.
You can serve it in sandwiches, on a bed of greens, or simply enjoy a spoonful straight from the bowl!
