  • Here's a recipe for another chicken salad—one that's a real favorite in the Hawaiian Islands. Put the chicken in a pot and cover it with the broth. Bring to a boil and simmer gently for about 35–45 minutes. Remove the meat and let it cool, then pull it off the bones and discard the skin (the skin holds a lot of fat, so it's best left out). Cut the meat into small pieces and put it in a large bowl. Add the diced pineapple and the celery stalks sliced on the diagonal. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, light cream, celery salt, and pepper until smooth. Fold the dressing into the chicken and mix well. Line a serving dish with large lettuce leaves and mound the salad on top. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and chill for at least 30 minutes. Just before serving, scatter slivered almonds over the top and garnish with fresh herbs. One more tip: this salad also makes a great sandwich filling—try stuffing it into pita pockets.
