Basic Chicken Salad

I know I have a couple of Chicken Salad Recipes, but this one is pretty basic and a good easy one.

I poach 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts for about 20 minutes in simmering water, celery ends (that I take from dicing up my celery) some onion powder and salt and pepper. Then I cool.

Meanwhile I finely chop celery to equal 1 cup. I add about 1/2 c. of slivered almonds, about 1/4 cup of quartered purple grapes (or halves depending on the size of grapes) 1/2 t. salt and a few grinds of fresh cracked black pepper.

I process my chicken in the food processor until finely chopped. I add it to the mix and add enough mayo to combine all.
