I absolutely love Bing Cherries. Their bright red color just pops every dish. Bing Cherry season is relatively short and most fresh in June & July.
I went to a very fun girls luncheon the other day and we all brought something to share. I decide to bring a fruit-packed version of chicken salad and I severe it on a wonderful light flakey dinner roll made fresh from my favorite Woodland Market in Tiburon.
Am I right.„, They are just so Bright & Red and Beautiful. Get your pitter and start pitting.
Chop your celery and onion into small pieces.
Toast your pecans on the stove top till they have a nice brown color. Keep and eye on them so the don’t burn.
Toss celery, onion, pecans, cherries and your chopped up poached chicken with you mayonnaise in a bowl. Mix well. Spread the Bing Cherry Chicken Salad on whatever type of bread you prefer. Bing a garnish on top.
I think this picture is screaming Red & Pink! Off I go.
Ingredients
11/4 pounds skinless, cooked boneless chicken breast chopped.
1 cup pecans toasted and chopped into small bite-size
1/2 diced Vidalia onion
1/2 pound fresh cherries pitted and chopped ( go crazy add more )
3/4 cup mayonnaise
Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
I really love this Bing Cherry Chicken Salad and please add more or less of any of these ingredients as you want. I promise I will not BING you if you deviate from this recipe.
