This is a great recipe for the salad. I used half of the chicken for the salad. I saved the broth,<br/>the cooked vegies, 2 cooked breasts to make Red Lion Chicken Bisque. I used dried dill weed instead of seed. I did add 1/4 cup sliced almonds. I added 2 pinches of turmeric for color. Thanks a great recipe

Great tasty chicken salad! I used the dill seed option instead of chopped pickles and left out the onion as I don't care for it. The dressing for this had a nice flavor that went well with the chicken. Thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for Fall Pick-A-Chef 2011
