CHICKEN SALAD - HOW TO COOK MEAT
Chicken salad is kind of like tuna salad in that it is has a mayonnaise base. You start out with poached chicken, mix it with mayonnaise, herbs, salt, and some sort of acid. Chicken salad is really quite simple to make and therefore many variations exist. I bet there are even a few recipes that don't use mayo—weirdos. The key to a tasty chicken salad, at least in my book, is that the chicken is properly poached. By you. Avoid the canned chicken. Poaching chicken is ridiculously easy. Besides, why eat meat from a can when you can buy fresh and poach it yourself? Canned meat is nasty.
