2 tablespoons finely chopped chives
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups Poached Chicken, recipe follows
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced celery

1 cup white wine
2 pounds bone-in chicken legs
4 cups chicken stock, plus more if needed

Line the bottom of four serving bowls with 3 leaves lettuce. Divide the salad evenly among the bowls, over the lettuce. Sprinkle the walnuts on top of the salads and finish with the chives to serve.

WALDORF SALAD



Waldorf Salad image

This is the original Waldorf Salad recipe which I clipped out of the newspaper several years ago. My mother made this salad often--it must have been a favorite of hers also. Newer versions have left out some of the ingredients which add variety in texture and taste. It's a classic American salad which was developed by the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 375 g, Fat 21 g

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your salad.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken should be cooked until it is just cooked through, but not dry.
  • Chop the nuts and celery finely: This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the salad.
  • Use a light dressing: A heavy dressing will overpower the other flavors in the salad.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This will prevent the lettuce from wilting.
