Exotic Chicken Salad
- 6 pounds Chicken (approx. 2 Whole Chickens)
- 1 whole Onion, Quartered
- 4 stalks Celery
- 4 Tablespoons Salt
- 2-2/3 cups Hellman's Mayonnaise
- 1 cup Half-and-Half

- In a large dutch oven, place chickens, 1 onion, quartered, 4 stalks celery, 4 tablespoons of salt and hot water to cover chicken. Over high heat, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer whole chickens until fork-tender. This will take 1 - 1 1/2 hours. Remove chickens from broth and allow to cool. Remove meat from bones in large pieces. Discard skin and bones. (Note: Preserve broth for another use).
- Approximately 3 hours before serving, prepare dressing in medium bowl by stirring together mayonnaise, vinegar, and half & half. Add grated onion and ground pepper and stir to combine. Add remaining ingredients to chicken and pour mayonnaise mixture over chicken and combine well. Chill thoroughly.
