Steps:
- 1. Combine the mayonnaise, relish, onion, honey, sugar, salt and white pepper in a bowl and mix well. Stir in the celery and pecans. Fold in the chicken. Adjust the seasonings to taste. Chill, covered, in the refrigerator. Serve on crusty French bread rolls with potato chips and carrot sticks, or on a bed of salad greens, garnished with a bunch of red grapes.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Organic chicken, fresh herbs, and crunchy pecans will make a big difference.
- Don't overcook the chicken. This will make it dry and tough. Cook it just until it is cooked through.
- Let the chicken cool completely before shredding it. This will help prevent it from falling apart.
- Use a variety of textures in the salad. The crunchy pecans, celery, and grapes add a nice contrast to the soft chicken and creamy dressing.
- Adjust the amount of mayonnaise to your liking. If you prefer a lighter salad, use less mayonnaise. If you like a richer salad, use more mayonnaise.
- Serve the salad immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Honey pecan chicken salad is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. It is also a great option for meal prep, as it can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
