This cool, colorful salad is a palate-pleaser. Apples and asparagus seem an unlikely match, but they form a terrific trio with chicken. I make this salad quite often while asparagus is in season. - Nancy Horsburgh, Everett, Ontario

I used grilled chicken in this salad, and it was delicious. I think it would also be good with rotisserie chicken or even canned chicken.
