directions

1. I cooked two boneless chicken breasts in a covered fry pan with about a 1/4 inch of white wine, salt, pepper and a chicken seasoning.
2. When done I cut them up in small pieces.
3. You could use leftover Chicken or cook it anyway you like.
4. Even canned chunk chicken might work.
5. Just cut everything up and mix it all together.
6. Just before serving add the Cool Whip and mix.
7. It should look like mayonnaise.
8. I used a Granny Smith Apple and Red Seedless Grapes, but any type would do.

Although I varied on some things, and didn't follow the recipe EXACTLY, it was fabulous! I used raisins instead of nuts, and low fat mayo / low fat sour cream instead of the Cool Whip. I stuffed the chicken into whole wheat pitas and served to my family, and we were in heaven. No guilt either! The combination of sweet and savory really worked, and the red pepper that I used added quite a taste dimension. We loved how the grapes and apples complimented the chicken, who knew it would be that good? Awesome! Thanks for submitting this, I will use it again and again!
