Hi :)
I decided to dedicate this blog to sweet Georgy! Anyone that knows George knows that he LOVES chicken - I don't feed him this recipe, but thought it was best to honor him!
Chicken Salad
3 Chicken Breasts (trimmed and skinless)
Olive oil
McCormicks Steak Seasoning
1 Cup Mayonnaise
2 Celery Stalks (trimmed and chopped)
2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
Ground Coriander
S&P to taste
Trim the chicken breasts and toss well with olive oil and McCormick's seasoning. Bake at 375 for about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Whisk mayonnaise, lemon juice and ground coriander together. (Side note - coriander is the seed that cilantro comes from. I am not a fan of cilantro, but when coriander seeds are roasted and ground, the spice is very citrus-like and delicious). You can add as much coriander as you like - I use a lot..about 2 tbsp. Use a food processor to chop the chicken breasts and combine with mayo mixture and celery. Add salt and pepper if needed.
This recipe is soooo easy - I have made this chicken salad many, many times for friends and family and it is always a hit :) Good on sandwiches and tasty on top of mixed greens as well.
Best Dishes!

I wanted to "piggy-back" onto Meliss' blog post...this is so good that you can skip the bread or mixed greens. Just eat it straight out of the bowl! Ha ha! No, really, if you are having a baby/bridal shower or luncheon, try serving this in endive leaves! The presentation is beautiful.
