Tips & Tricks (5)

Toast Those Almonds 🥜
Lightly toast the almonds in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before adding to the salad to enhance their nutty flavor and provide maximum crunch.
Chicken Cooling Technique 🧊
Allow cooked chicken to cool completely before mixing with other ingredients to prevent wilting and maintain the salad's crisp texture.
Grape Selection Secret 🍇
Choose firm, seedless grapes and cut them in half to distribute their sweetness evenly and prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the salad.
Dressing Balance Trick 🥄
Mix Dijon mustard and mayonnaise in a 1:3 ratio for a perfect balance of tang and creaminess that complements the chicken and grapes.
Onion Mellowing Hack 🧅
Soak diced red onions in cold water for 5 minutes before adding to the salad to remove their sharp bite and create a milder flavor profile.
