Tarragon Chicken Salad on Croissants
Ingredients
- 4 Tbsp tarragon vinegar (60 ml)
- 1/2 cup golden raisins (70 g)
- 3 lbs boiled and shredded chicken breasts (1.4 kg)
- 1 cup mayonnaise (240 g)
- 3/4 cup chopped fresh tarragon (13 g)
- 2 Tbsp chopped fresh dill
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 6 croissants halved lengthwise
Instructions
- In a small pot, combine 2 Tbsp of the vinegar, the raisins, and enough water to just cover the raisins. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat and set aside to rehydrate the raisins.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the chicken, mayonnaise, tarragon, dill, mustard, and the remaining 2 Tbsp of vinegar and stir until completely combined.
- Drain the raisins, then add them to the chicken mixture and stir to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper, then spoon onto the croissant bottoms, add the tops, and serve.
