Mrs. Wicken's Chicken Salad Recipe was originally published in the "Women's Column" of the Freeman's Journal, 18th August 1894.
The following recipe for chicken salad is Mrs. Wicken's, and is really delicious.
Take half a chicken, one gill of thick white sauce, one lettuce, six radishes, small salad, salad dressing.
Cut up the chicken into small pieces and remove the skin, dip it into the white sauce, arrange some salad on a dish, put over it a little dressing:, and then some pieces of chicken, then more lettuce, radishes, etc., continue this in layers till the materials are all used up, leaving plenty of salad for top.
Garnish with beet-root and hard boiled eggs.
