Answer 2

2 boneless chicken breasts
Soy sauce and pepper to marinate chicken
3 T peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)
2 T rice wine vinegar
1 T soy sauce
1 T fresh ginger, peeled
1 T veggie oil
4-5 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 lb green beans, trimmed to 1 inch lengths
2 c sliced sweet peppers
1/4 to 1/2 a sweet onion, chopped
Spinach, to serve

Marinate chicken with soy sauce and pepper for 1/2 hour. Grill or broil until cooked through.

Combine peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce, and ginger in a food processor. Puree. Thin with water or vinegar if necessary.

Heat oil in a pan and add garlic. Cook for 1 minute, then add the beans and cook for 3-5 minutes, until they are just barely cooked. Add a little water, cover, and turn off the heat. Uncover after 3 minutes.

To assemble, cut the chicken breasts into slices and combine with the veggies and the dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve on a bed of spinach leaves.









My favorite Chicken Salad Recipe is the one from MyChickenRecipes.com. When I made it at my resent housewarming the guest gave me lots of positive comments. Here it is:

1/4 c Diced red bell pepper
1/4 c Sliced black olives

Answer 3

Make your chicken salad as usual then instead of Mayo/mustard add Salsa (from a jar like Pace) or Cesar, Italian or some other dressing you like - add in small amounts to get the moisture level right and you have a really great wrap without the mayo! Enjoy!

Answer 4

None of the Chinese chicken salad recipes call for mayonnaise. If you like the taste of "regular" chicken salad but are trying to avoid the calories and fat, there are wonderful fat free mayonnaise substitutes that taste just like the real thing!

Answer 5

feels like a Waldorf Salad with yogurt particularly of mayo. in accordance to the yank Century Cookbook, the 1st Waldorf Salad became created in ny city in 1893, by using Oscar Tschirky, the maître d'hôtel of the Waldorf Astoria. the unique recipe consisted in basic terms of diced crimson-skinned apples, celery, and mayonnaise. Chopped walnuts have been extra later to this now American classic. some desire their Waldorf salad made with yogurt, particularly of mayo. Having had this salad the two techniques, I fall firmly in the mayonnaise camp. yet be at liberty to alter yogurt for the mayo if it is your druthers. a million/2 cup chopped, somewhat toasted walnuts a million/2 cup celery, thinly sliced a million/2 cup crimson seedless grapes, sliced (or a a million/4 cup of raisins) a million candy apple, cored and chopped 3 Tbsp mayonnaise (or yogurt) a million Tbsp sparkling lemon juice Salt Pepper Lettuce In a medium sized bowl, whisk at the same time the mayonnaise (or yogurt) and the lemon juice. upload a million/2 teaspoon of salt, a million/4 teaspoon of sparkling floor pepper. combination in the apple, celery, grapes, and walnuts. Serve on a mattress of sparkling lettuce. Serves 2.

Answer 6

This one would be good for both and it's simple. I don't eat mayo anymore, but wanted a really good spread recipe. This also works with Crab Meat(Real or artificial).

Shredded chicken breast
Bacon (Pork or turkey works great) Crispy
Ranch dressing(Fat Free or Regular)
chopped onions and Garlic
Any other seasonings you like.

If using turkey bacon, pop it in the microwave and it gets really crisp without the oily taste.

Mix all the ingredients and refrigerate.

Answer 7

Really simple one:

Coat bbq sauce on chicken breasts/fillets and grill.
Slice and grill mushrooms.
Cut chicken into strips.
Mix 1tsp wholegrain mustard/1tbsp balsamic vinegar/1tbsp olice oil.
Toss rocket/spinach/lettuce/whatever salad in the vinagrette.
Add sliced cherry tomatoes/feta or goats cheese if you want.

There. You can have it on it's own or in a sandwich or wrap.

Answer 8

you can use a bit of cream of mushroom soup, straight from can, to give creaminess.
