Chicken Salad with Grapes and WalnutsRomulo Yanes

Feeling burnt-out on the same old chicken salad from the corner deli? We were, too, until our love was rekindled by this lively version, studded with crunchy walnuts, plump grapes, and little beads of salty capers.

Serve with:

sliced tomatoes; green beans with lemon
