Recipe of the Week – Warm Chicken Salad

Julia's Chicken
Warm Chicken Salad
The final chapter in the Julia Child’s weekend was played out on Monday. Returning from taking Jeannie to the airport we decided we wanted a light but good lunch to put the ribbon around our food-a-thon. This involved putting two words that I thought I would never use in the same sentence: Julia Child and leftovers. We still had some of the wonderful chicken left from Sunday’s dinner so why not combine the chicken with a salad and have the best of both worlds while keeping it light.
I re-heated the leftover chicken including the pan juices in the microwave, and cut the chicken into 6 pieces. Placing 3 pieces on each salad I finished the dish by spooning the pan juices onto the top of the salad. This added a wonderful new dimension to the simple salad, slightly warming the lettuce and adding those tasty pan juices to both the chicken and the lettuce.
So don’t be so quick to pitch those pan juices when saving the leftover chicken. You may find yourself in a quandary as to what to make for a quick lunch, and this warm salad may just hit the spot.
