Anyone have a good Chicken Salad recipe?

I'm looking for a good chicken salad recipe for sandwiches ... we bbq'd chicken yesterday and have loads of leftovers! HEB had this coconut chicken salad that was awesome but I cant find the dressing recipe I just remember it has thai coconut milk in it :)
 
This is the one I make. Maybe you can put it into sandwiches as well.

Mix salad leaves, tomatoes, chicken breast strips, mango strips, red pepper. Dressing: Mustard/honey dressing or French dressing.

Yum.
 
Do you mean chicken in a salad, or chicken salad (like Tuna salad)?

My basic Chicken Salad (Tuna style) consists of:

2-3 Green onions (challots)
1 grilled chicken breast, cut into small pieces
1/4 red or spanish onion
Fresh minced garlic (usually 1 clove)
Some shredded carrot
Diced bell peppers
1 TSP Light low fat mayo
1 TSP Light low fat Miracle whip
Paprika too taste
Touch of Salt and Pepper

Throw it all in a bowl and mix. I normally eat it straight out of the bowl, if not, I take 4-5 non-salted crackers and scoop away.
 
Ya i was looking for chicken salad like tuna salad :) thanks for the recipe, I'll try it next time. I ended up making it with celery, grapes, walnurts, 1 tsp mayo, 1 tsp sour cream, and a ranch dressing packet ... it was awesome! How long do you think it is good for in the fridge? Its a week Wednesday ... Im scared to get sick if i eat it now ...

Cooked chicken should hold 4-5 days, not sure about the Mayo and sour cream though :confused:
 
I'd eat chicken at 3 weeks. :) I've never gotten sick eating really old food, as long as it doesn't have anything odd growing on it or have a funky flavor.
