Asian Chicken Salad

Ellbee’s Garlic Kitchen Box

This is chicken salad for people who want something a little livelier than the deli case. Asian Zing garlic, crisp celery, sweet apple and toasted pecans bring crunch and contrast, while a honey-ginger balsamic dressing makes it bright enough for lettuce cups, crostini or a stacked sandwich.
