Strawberry Tarragon Chicken Salad image

After thinking about creating this salad for some time, one spring I used my homegrown strawberries and fresh tarragon to do a little experimenting. It didn't take me very long to come up with a winner! My husband enjoyed my creation as much as I did, and now we can't wait for strawberry season to come around each year. -Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have some leftover chicken in my fridge, so this is a perfect recipe for me.

I'm not a big fan of tarragon, so I used basil instead. It was still delicious.

I added a little bit of chopped walnuts to my salad for some extra crunch. It was a great addition.

I used fresh strawberries from my garden and they were so sweet and juicy. This salad is definitely best when made with fresh berries.

The tarragon really makes this salad special. It adds a subtle anise flavor that complements the strawberries and chicken perfectly.
