Chicken Salad with Rosemary and Almonds

Borrowed from my divine Aunt Jen, who I believe borrowed from the divine Contessa Ina. Everything is eyeballed and to taste, really. You can usually find smoked almonds in the candy/snacks aisle, not the baking aisle, of the grocery store. I love them with the dried cherries. One of my favorite aspects of this recipe is having the leftover almonds and cherries around just for snacking.


Ingredients:

• 1/4-1/2 c. sour cream
• 1/4-1/2 c. mayonaise
• Cooked chicken (from a roasted chicken, store bought rotisserie chicken, whatever). 4 cups-ish?
• 1/2 c. chopped smoked almonds
• 1/2 c. chopped dried cherries
• 1-2 tbs. chopped fresh rosemary
• 1/4 c. finely diced red or sweet onion
• 1 stalk celery, chopped
• salt and pepper

Directions:

• In small bowl, mix together mayo and sour cream.
• Dump rest of ingredients in large bowl, add mayo/sour cream and mix.
• Serve on croissants, wraps, rolls or just a bed of lettuce.
