This has got to be the most delicious chicken salad I have put in my mouth. Couldn't find Hazelnuts, so I subbed Macadamias (since I had a bag) and didn't bother to toast the powdered spices, either. We had this Saturday and I'm still thinking about how good it was this Monday AM (and wishing there had been leftovers!!) Fan-freaking-tastic!!!Reply
