I knew, when I planned the beer can chicken, I would use leftovers for chicken salad. And I really contemplated what I would use in chicken salad this time. I remembered those beautiful, fresh cherries arriving in our produce department and got excited about using them. Hmmm, what else would work? How about Blue Cheese. Yes, I think that will work.
3 cups shredded, cooked chicken
2 cups celery, sliced
1 cup Vidalia onion, chopped
2 cups fresh cherries, pitted and sliced
1 cup pecan halves, lightly toasted
6 oz. blue cheese, cut into cubes
Dressing for Chicken Salad
Serve over baby arugula.
Oh my goodness, beer can chicken transformed into chicken salad! Great idea. The blue cheese is icing on the cake. Thanks for visiting my blog.
