Chicken Salad

This is one that I created in Nantucket last summer and everyone went wild for it.


Ingredients:

2 Granny smith apples
2 Fuji apples
1 bag dried cranberries
1 lb walnuts (chopped)
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
salt
pepper

sauce:
1C mayo
1/2 C Honey Mustard
2-3 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 C Apple Cider Vinegar
(I apologize for this is an aproximation of the sauce..... I THINK this is about the amounts that I use, the sauce should be vaguely sweet, thin and creamy... Might want to use the good old taste-it method...)



Core and cube apples. If you want a smaller salad, use one of each instead of two (this recipe serves a lot). You can also use 2 lbs of chicken instead of one. Boil the chicken until cooked through and then shred it or cube it (up to you), seasoning it to taste with salt and pepper. Mix all ingredients together in a big bowl.

For the sauce, start with the brown sugar and add the cider vinegar to it to get the sugar to dissolve. then add mayo and honey mustard. Mix well and then mix sauce into the rest of the ingredients.



Let me know if you make this and the sauce doesn't taste right. I will then actually work on measuring it out and making it the right measurements... :)
