| For Chicken: |
|
4 skinless boneless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 lbs. total) |
|
Salt and pepper |
 | ½ cup Girard's® Apple Poppyseed Dressing |
|
 |
| For Waldorf Salad: |
|
½ cup mayonnaise |
 | ¼ cup Girard's® Apple Poppyseed Dressing |
|
|
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
|
¼ teaspoon salt |
|
¼ teaspoon pepper |
|
1 large Fuji apple, cored and diced |
|
2 ribs celery, trimmed and diced |
|
½ cup sliced seedless red grapes, halved |
|
3 chives, chopped |
|
1 cup chopped toasted walnuts |
|
6 red- or green-leaf lettuce leaves, ribs removed |
 |
 |
Six 10-inch sandwich wraps (spinach, tomato or plain)
Marinate Chicken:
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper and combine in a zipper-top bag with Girard's® Apple Poppyseed Salad Dressing. Marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
Make Waldorf Salad:
Whisk together the mayonnaise, Girard's® Apple Poppyseed Salad Dressing, lemon juice and salt and pepper. Toss with apple, celery, grapes, chives and walnuts; reserve.
Grill Chicken:
Remove chicken from marinade, shaking off excess. Lightly oil a grill pan and heat over medium-high heat. Grill chicken breasts until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and let rest briefly. Slice thinly and reserve.
Assemble Sandwiches:
Place a lettuce leaf in the center of 1 wrap. Top with about ½ cup Waldorf salad and ½ cup (about 3 oz.) chicken. Wrap tightly, secure with a toothpick, slice in half (if desired), and serve.
If you're trying to cut calories, replace the full-fat mayo with light mayo, omit the wraps, and serve Waldorf salad and grilled chicken over lettuce.
