CLASSIC CHICKEN SALAD
This crowd-pleasing recipe for classic chicken salad is perfect for sandwiches, salads, and snacking. Bits of celery, relish, and fresh herbs add texture and flavor while Dijon mustard and lemon juice add a tangy bite. Enjoy it just as it is, or add nuts or fruits. My favorite way to eat this is on toasted wheat bread with lettuce and tomato alongside a healthy serving of potato chips!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly coat a baking dish with cooking spray.
- Season chicken evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and onion powder. Place in the prepared baking dish and cover tightly with foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear and chicken shreds easily, about 1 hour 20 minutes; don't overcook. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Remove from the oven, uncover, and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes. Reserve any accumulated chicken broth.
- Prepare dressing while chicken cools. Combine 1 cup mayonnaise, sour cream, relish, green onions, parsley, Dijon, lemon juice, dill, and remaining salt and pepper in a large bowl; mix until well combined.
- Break chicken into large pieces and place in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 3 to 5 times to shred chicken to desired consistency.
- Transfer chicken to a bowl. Add celery and pour dressing over top; toss to coat. If more moisture is desired, add reserved broth or more mayonnaise.
- Cover and chill for at least 2 hours (or up to 2 days) before serving. Stir well before serving.

CHICKEN SALAD BALLS
I was working the election polls several years ago when some of the ladies brought these little appetizers for us to munch on. They came from their church cookbook. I liked them so much that I bought a cookbook on the spot. Great marketing on their part!

Steps:
- Take your rotisserie chicken apart, using a fork to make strands.
- In a bowl mix the chicken, the celery, the almonds, the walnuts, and the green apple together.
- Add the sour cream and mayo, as well as the twist of lemon juice, preferably fresh. Incorporate the salt and pepper.
- Mix it together with your hands until all of your ingredients have been perfectly combined.
- With your hands, form palm size balls. They should be easy to manipulate and all of the ingredients should stick together, if they don't you can add a little more sour cream so they will hold up. You should end up with four balls (the size of tennis balls approximately).
- Refrigerate over night. (If you can't, try to leave it at least a couple of hours in the fridge).

MATZO BALL SOUP AND CHICKEN SALAD
Steps:
- For the soup: Cut whole chicken into quarters or breasts into 2 pieces. Place the chicken into a stockpot and fill the stockpot with water to cover chicken. Bring the stockpot to a boil. Skim the top of the water. Add the vegetables and seasonings. Turn heat down and let simmer for approximately 1 1/2 hours or until tender.
- For the Matzo Balls: Separate the yolks from the whites and mix the yolks with chicken fat (or oil). Mix matzo meal, salt and soup stock together. Beat egg whites to soft peaks. Mix together the yolk mixture and the matzo meal. Fold the egg whites into the matzo mixture and refrigerate for 40 minutes. Remove from refrigerator and make heaping tablespoon size balls. Boil in salt water for about 40 minutes.
- Strain the soup, reserving the chicken (for the chicken salad) and the carrots. Place the matzo balls into the strained soup. Serve the matzo ball soup with the carrots.
- For the chicken salad: Mix chicken, eggs and mayonnaise together. The amount of mayonnaise may vary depending on the amount of chicken. Season with garlic powder and salt and pepper, to taste. The garlic powder is the trick to making it taste so good. Top with toasted slivered almonds (optional).

Steps:
- First, make the sauce. Put the orange juice, sugar, tomato purée, ketchup and vinegar in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 mins. Slowly pour in the cornflour mixture, a little at a time, stirring continuously until you have the desired consistency. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Mix the flour, baking powder and 1 tsp salt together in a large bowl. Beat the eggs, milk and 1 tbsp oil together in a separate bowl. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix well to create a smooth paste. Add the chicken pieces and mix, making sure each piece is thoroughly coated.
- Fill a deep saucepan or wok no more than a third full with oil and heat to 170C, or until a cube of bread dropped in browns within 30 seconds. Carefully lower the coated chicken pieces into the oil, one piece at a time, and fry in batches of five for about 5-6 mins each batch until golden brown and cooked through. If you have a food probe thermometer, the internal temperature should reach 78C. If you don't have a thermometer, cut a chicken piece in half to ensure the juices run clear.
- Drain the fried chicken on a wire rack set over a baking tray lined with kitchen paper, or on a plate lined with kitchen paper. Serve with the sweet & sour sauce for dipping.
