Chicken Salad Served on Croissant

Were you aware that January 30 is the perfect day to take notice of the croissant? While I am definitely not going to bake my own I would love to share a recipe of what I would serve on them.

2 1/2 c cubed cooked chicken breast

 2/3 c dried cherries

1/3 c chopped celery

1/3 c chopped tart apple

1/3 c chopped pecans, toasted

1/2 c mayonnaise

4 t buttermilk

1/2 t salt

1/8 t pepper

7 croissants split

 

                                

 

                                

In  a large bowl, combine the chicken, cherries, celery, apple and pecans. In another bowl, combine the mayonnaise, buttermilk, salt and pepper; add to chicken mixture and mix well. Spoon 1/2 cup chicken salad onto each croissant. Yield: 7 servings.
