CHICKEN SALAD-STUFFED TOMATOES



Chicken Salad-Stuffed Tomatoes image

This light and fresh supper will hit the spot on a hot summer night-which also happens to be when the best tomatoes are in season. This easy recipe calls for just five ingredients (plus salt and pepper) and doesn't require you to heat up the kitchen, thanks to a rotisserie chicken. Choose large, meaty beefsteak tomatoes for this dish; they can hold enough chicken salad to make a satisfying meal. It's okay if they aren't perfectly round (many beefsteaks and heirloom varieties have unusual shapes) as long as they are large and flat-bottomed. Serve the stuffed tomatoes with crusty bread and mixed greens for a refreshingly simple meal.

CHICKEN SALAD STUFFED TOMATOES



Chicken Salad Stuffed Tomatoes image

As pretty as a flower on the plate, this delicious recipe hails from the Mississippi Valley chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947. Variations: substitute crab, meat, tuna or salmon for chicken.

Provided by Molly53

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup cooked chicken, diced
2/3 cup celery, diced
3 tablespoons cucumbers, peeled and diced
3 tablespoons French dressing (French Dressing (Not Catalina Style) or your own recipe)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
6 large tomatoes
salt, to taste
mayonnaise, for garnish (use a good quality, such as Hellmann's)

Steps:

  • Mix first four ingredients and chill at least 30 minutes; gently mix in 1/4 cup mayonnaise.
  • Wash and peel tomatoes; cut out blossom end and cut tomatoes from top to within a quarter inch of bottom, into 5 or 6 wedge-shaped sections.
  • Lightly salt and chill.
  • Pull wedges apart to resemble petals of a flower, place on chilled plates and fill with chicken salad; garnish with a small dollop of mayonnaise.

Tips:

- For the best flavor, use ripe, juicy tomatoes. - If you don't have any cooked chicken, you can use a rotisserie chicken. - Be sure to chop the celery and onion finely so that they don't overpower the other ingredients. - Add some chopped nuts or dried fruit to the chicken salad for a crunchy texture. - If you're short on time, you can use store-bought chicken salad. - For a more elegant appetizer, you can use cherry tomatoes instead of regular tomatoes. - If you're making the chicken salad ahead of time, be sure to cover it tightly and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Chicken salad stuffed tomatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They're also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a crowd-pleasing appetizer that everyone will love.
