New Waldorf Chicken Salad
Ingredients
Directions1. In large shallow saucepan, pour in water to depth of 2 inches; Heat over medium heat until simmering (small bubbles form but do not break surface of water). 2. Add chicken to pan in single layer, meaty side down; cook for 15-20 minutes or until no longer pink inside. Using tongs, transfer chicken to plate; let cool in refrigerator for about 1 hour or until chilled. [Chicken can be covered and stored for up to 4 hours.] 3. Dressing: in small bowl, whisk together yogurt, mayonnaise, parsley, lemon juice, mustard and pepper. (Dressing can be covered and refrigerated for up to 8 hours.] 4. Meanwhile, thinly slice onions and celery. Pull off skin from chicken. Pressing small paring knife against bone, cut off each breast to remove in 1 piece. Cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch wide strips; cut crosswise into 1/2- inch cubes. 5. One apple at a time, slice off 1 side close to core; repeat 3 more times. Layer each piece cut side down; cut in half horizontally. Holding layers together, cut into 1/2-inch wide strips; cut crosswise into 1/2-inch cubes. 6. In large bowl, combine chicken, green onions, celery, apples and pecans. Add dressing and stir gently to coat well.
