I found the chicken salad portion of this recipe to be rather bland on its own. The combination of the raisin bread and mandarin orange did perk up the salad and give the sandwich some freshness of flavor. I had reduced the amount of cream cheese, and believe it would have been incredibly heavy had I used the full amount. I used fresh thyme and quickly toasted my pecans while chopping my leftover roasted chicken. Presentation was very pretty.
