Chicken Waldorf Salad

Iris Warren

Report

Chicken breast, apples, grapes, pecans and celery in a creamy dressing. It's a perfect combination of flavors and textures. I served this over a bed of baby arugula and baby spinach, but this is also wonderful on a whole grain roll or in a healthy low carb wrap.

Instructions

To poach chicken breast: Cover chicken breast in broth in a small pot, add water if it doesn't cover the chicken.

Reduce to a simmer and cook 5 minutes.
Remove from heat, cover tight and let it sit for 15-20 minutes or until thickest part of the breast registers 160 degrees. Chicken will be cooked through.
Drain, let it cool and cut into small cubes.
Combine mayo, yogurt, salt, pepper and mix well.

Mix in pecans right before serving.
