Notes
Here are some other herbs and seasonings to consider adding to your chicken salad:1. Tarragon - Adds a subtle, anise-like flavor that pairs beautifully with chicken. 2. Dill - Brings a fresh, slightly tangy taste that complements creamy dressings. 3. Basil - Provides a sweet and slightly peppery flavor, perfect for a summer twist. 4. Chives - Adds a mild onion flavor without overpowering the other ingredients. 5. Paprika - For a hint of smokiness and color. 6. Yellow Curry Powder - For an exotic, spiced flavor that adds warmth to the salad - this is one of my favorites! 7. Garlic Powder- For an extra savory kick. 8. Lemon Zest - Brightens up the salad with a burst of citrusy flavor.
