Elegant and rich with a creamy, buttery texture, this is the best chicken salad I've ever eaten! The original recipe was served at Yankee Peddler's Tea Room in Missouri and I've adjusted to taste. This is an excellent chicken salad for croissants, or serve on a bed of greens with melon and fruit on the side for a wonderful summer meal.
