2 in 1 - Herbed Chicken & Leftover Chicken Salad

"This may be a first for RecipeZaar - two recipes in one! I had leftovers from the Herbed Chicken with no takers (if you know what I mean). This is delicious hot, but leftovers lose its appeal. Hating to see food go to waste, I created an out-of-this world recipe for Herbed Chicken Salad. (From now on, I WILL make sure I have leftovers for the chicken salad.) I doubled the original Herbed Chicken recipe to accommodate the chicken salad. If you like traditional chicken and chicken salad, search elsewhere. This is for those who are looking for unique flavors."

  1. This is an awsome recipe!! I only had dill for the chicken salad and it was still wonderful. I had mixed the mayo and dill togehter nd then actually had in in the fridge for a day until i mixed the chicken in and someone at my work who tried it thought it was fresh dill. Everyone who tried it loved it! This is a keeper!
     
  2. What a delicious 2 in 1 recipe! The herbed chicken was moist and flavorful and it made a lovely chicken salad. My family loves chicken salad, and this one was delicious and different with the addition of dill and black olives. Made for 2012 Zaar Cookbook Tag-thanks for a keeper recipe that I will make again1
     
  3. Pretty good recipe, but kind of strong. I think it was a bit too much sage. Still pretty good though! And the chicken salad recipe was fantastic!! The dill really made the difference!
     
  4. Really really good. I cut the recipe in half for my small family and made the chicken last night along side some baked potatoes and peas and it was enjoyed by all. Today I am eating the leftovers for my lunch. I added some of the leftover peas and am eating it with a fork. Really yummy! This has found a permanent home in my cookbooks.
     
  5. ***EDIT: I had to drop my 5 star rating down to a 3. The Herbed Chicken itself is a 5 STAR for sure! But, the Chicken salad was just plain awful. I'm very sorry but it just wasn't edible for our family. **END EDIT** This was phenomenal! We had the Herbed Chicken tonight and oh my! It was wonderful!! We had company over and they all loved it. I was worried that there would not be any left to make the Chicken Salad, but thanks to the flavor burst of spices we enjoyed our meal, but ate less than normal.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I live in Northern Indiana with my husband of 37 years and best friend, Evan. Due to unfortunate circumstances and God's grace, we are raising our two beautiful grandchildren from our daughter, Chris, who lost her battle with breast cancer after a hard, four year battle. It is a responsibility that I do not take lightly. God has blessed us with these kids and it is an honor to be able to raise them. That's not to say, it's easy. Organization is the key. We do lots of meal planning and advance preparation. <br /><br />Evan &amp; I enjoy eating out at fine restaurants and then trying to re-create gourmet meals at home. Unfortunately (?) we are such good cooks that we are usually disappointed when eating out because we know that what we prepare tastes better (and less expensive). Therefore, we usually only order something that we haven't made at home. <br /><br />We love to cook together and spend many hours cooking for family and friends. Quite honestly, Evan is the better cook in the family. He has a knack for knowing what flavors and spices blend well together and has created many original creations. <br /><br />I love to find and try out new recipes - which is why I visit Recipezaar often. We've added many of your shared recipes to my public cookbook titled Permanent Edition. I only post recipes that are our favorites and feel that others will enjoy them. I look for ease of preparation AND outstanding flavor. If I post a recipe that's a little more work, it's because the end result deserves the extra effort. <br /><br />If we had a month off with no work, no responsibilities, and no financial issues; we'd spent time on the ocean in Oregon. My husband grew up in Seattle and spent summers at Cannon Beach (Oregon). I've only been there twice but absolutely love the area. <br /><br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/vjuhl/MEPcookathon.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /> <br /><br /><img alt= /><br />src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket&gt; <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg alt= /></p>
