Yummy Chicken Salad Recipie
So my sister made this recipie for me when I was visting her over the summer. It is delicious. I just found it online. We replaced the radicchico leaves with leaves of lettuce...Got the recipie from the Real Simple magazine.
Chicken Salad in Radicchio Cups
1 3 1/2- to 4-pound rotisserie chicken
4 medium carrots, shredded
6 scallions (white and light green parts), thinly sliced on the diagonal
1 tablespoon fresh tarragon, roughly chopped
Kosher salt and pepper
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 heads radicchio, leaves separated
Using a fork or your fingers, shred the chicken meat, discarding the skin and bones. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, carrots, scallions, tarragon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Slowly add the oil in a steady stream, whisking constantly until emulsified. Divide the radicchio leaves among individual plates, spoon the chicken salad over the top, and drizzle with the vinaigrette.
Substitution: If you find radicchio too peppery, spoon the salad into Boston or Bibb lettuce leaves. Or serve it in endive leaves, as fork-free hors d'oeuvres.
Yield: Makes 4 to 6 servings
