A few years back when I was pregnant with my daughter, I had food cravings like most pregnant woman do. One of my cravings was for Willow Tree chicken salad. Almost every day for lunch, I went to a little sandwich shop about a block away from my office, and I would get the exact same thing to eat: a Willow Tree chicken salad sandwich (and this sandwich shop specifically stated it was Willow Tree for good reason!) on sourdough bread, milk, and a piece of fruit.
Jersey Cafe Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipe
Willow Tree Farm is a New England-area food company and poultry farm based out of Attleboro, Massachusetts, famous for their deli chicken salad and chicken pot pies. According to the Willow Tree website, they credit their chicken salad as one of the reasons the company has flourished over the years, and their products are also sold at grocery chains all along the East Coast of the United States.
Thank you for this recipe. I saw it on Pinterest and made it tonight for dinner with some chicken noodle soup. The chicken salad us delish! I used 2 cans of chicken breast in water and it worked great.
When it comes to making the best chicken salad, the star of the show should always be the chicken. With that being said there are many additions you can make to this classic recipe that will make it just the way you like it.
Of course, you can use whatever type of chicken you like. Some restaurants use all breast meat in their chicken salad thinking that their customers will perceive better quality ingredients. But the truth is those recipes lack the flavor the dark meat adds.
This has always been my go to recipe for chicken salad. However, I do add a little granulated garlic and celery salt/seed. I agree that simple is better when it comes to this dish! No grapes, nuts, cranberries! Just fresh bread! Thank You Chef Dennis, I have referenced your recipes for several years.
This Afro Caribbean fusion cafe is a hidden gem. The most popular sandwich on the menu is the Griot Sandwich, featuring shredded seasoned chicken atop of a crisp plantain chip, covered in smashed avocado, and topped in a spicy traditional slaw. Trust us on this one, it is one you do not want to miss. The unique flavors at Griot Cafe are sure to wake up those taste buds.
Half a sandwich (your choice of tuna (310-340 cal), turkey (290-320 cal), grilled cheese (430-460 cal) or B.L.T. (290-320 cal), a cup of soup (110/210), and your choice of a small house salad (250-390 cal), Caesar salad (230 cal) or very berry salad. (240 cal)
The easy-melting, individually-wrapped Kraft Cheddar Singles are the perfect secret ingredient to copy this cheesy broccoli cheddar soup served at this top soup stop. In my Panera Bread Broccoli Cheddar Soup recipe, fresh broccoli is first steamed, then diced into little bits before you combine it with chicken broth, half-and-half, shredded carrot, and onion. Now you're just 30 minutes away from soup spoon go-time.
The next day, grill your marinated chicken, chop it up, toss it with the secret citrusy sauce hacked here, add some fresh cilantro and lime juice, then use it as you see fit on burritos, tacos, salads, and bowls.
Of all the sandwiches on the unhealthy side of the spectrum, Wendy's Homestyle Asiago Ranch Chicken Club is the least detrimental to your health with only 1,540 milligrams of sodium in each sandwich. This is still a large amount of sodium for one sandwich, though. The American Heart Association recommends consuming no more than 2,300 milligrams of sodium per day, and 1,540 milligrams is a little less than half of that. For not even 700 calories, you essentially wipe out half a day's worth of salt. Between the fried chicken, asiago cheese, bacon strips, and creamy ranch sauce, it makes sense as to why this sandwich packs so much salt.
The worst sodium offender of them all? Jersey Mike's Buffalo Chicken Cheese Steak. At 3,625 milligrams of sodium, this sandwich packs over 1.5 times the amount of sodium you're supposed to consume in one day. Between the chicken, blue cheese dressing, and Frank's Red hot sauce, this sandwich takes the cake as the most sodium-ridden and therefore is the unhealthiest sandwich you can order at one of the seven quick-service restaurants analyzed. There must be a lot of hot sauce on here, with just one tablespoon consisting of 460 milligrams of the stuff.
Shockingly, Wendy's crispy chicken sandwich has less sodium than the fast food chain's grilled chicken counterpart. Ideally, it's better to opt for a grilled option, but because this sandwich contains 200 milligrams less sodium than the grilled variety, we considered it to be the healthier option.
