Orange Marmalade Chicken Fruit Salad
This is a variation of my mom’s recipe and doesn’t have any official measurements so feel free to add or subtract as you see fit.
Marmalade Sauce (mix together in separate bowl)
- 1/4 C mayo
- 2 T orange marmalade
- 1/4 t ground mustard
- Cubed cooked chicken (left over rotisserie chicken, or grill up a few boneless chicken breasts)
- Cut up grapes
- Small can of drained mandarin orange slices
- Diced celery stalk (oops, I forgot this.)
- Toasted almonds (put butter in a frying pan, add almost slices, and stir constantly over medium heat until they are golden.)
Place about a tablespoon of olive oil in your pan and toss in your asparagus. Coat with coarse sea salt, some fresh garlic or garlic powder and a dash of pepper. Cook for 3 minutes over medium heat. They will come out crisp but not overly crisp and incredibly tasty.
Tip: When you bring asparagus home from the market or store, cut the ends off your asparagus and place in a vase or cup of water in fridge to have them remain fresher longer.
Yum! I love this meal and you might too. Let me know if you try it!

We have a restaurant here that serves a chicken salad very similar. They serve it with chunked melons and strawberries on the side. They croissant had a light orange glaze on it. It's delicious!

I DO love to cook but nobody says you have to slave over it. This looks like a good fast dinner. It's beautiful on the plate.

substituting non-fat greek yogurt is also a great way to make recipes like this. It's waaaay better for you than mayo (not just lower fat, but high protein and other good things).

Hi Beth,
YES it should be warm here in dreary PA! I'm so sick of this freaky weather…..hot one day and cold the next!
I love anything with mandarin oranges and your salad looks delish. It would be a great summer meal and I'll be trying it soon! 🙂
