The unexpected combination of fennel and blue cheese turn this no-cook recipe into a refreshing gourmet inspired chicken salad. What’s more? You can have this no-cook dinner ready to serve in under 10 minutes. For best results, thinly slice the fennel and red onion using a large chef’s knife or mandoline. Finely chop the fennel fronds and sprinkle over the salad right before serving for a pretty garnish and extra-burst of sweet licorice-like flavor. Plan to use any a leftover chicken you have in the fridge or grab some from your supermarket’s deli. Or branch out and try this crisp salad with cooked shrimp or salmon for variation.
