Notes
Croissants are very popular in French cafes. Those are flaky and buttery, and eaten like simple snacks and paired with café au lait. Last time I was in Nice we had a beautiful meal that included croissants with different spreads, cheese and a variety of charcuterie choices.
In the menu, the croissants options included chocolate hazelnut spread, fruit preserves, homemade fruit confit, cold cuts and a variety of cheeses. But croissant sandwiches go very nicely with seafood, tuna and or chicken salad too.
A tasty Almond Cherry Chicken Salad Croissant inspired in the flavors of Nice
Inspired in the flavors of Nice we created this recipe for the almond cherry chicken salad croissant. Which is very simple to make, convenient and low cost. As it can be made with chicken leftovers and almost anything available in the pantry.

Who doesn’t have mayo, sour cream, dried fruits, canned white meat or leftover chicken and spices at home. The croissants are easily available at the local bakery and are not expensive. Having easy recipes like this almond cherry chicken salad croissant is good because those can be served in picnics or brought to outdoor activities with the family. And even packed for an easy brown bag lunch to enjoy at the office. The chicken salad is also versatile because it can be served over a bed of lettuce or eaten with crackers instead of bread.

I’ve had croissants once, when u was travelling through Brazil. I think this variation would be even more lovely to try.
We love croissants with almost anything =)
Chicken salad is one of my favorite types of sandwiches to eat! I usually make mine with chopped up celery instead of cherries, but I’d like to try this version one of these days!
I like to use celery in seafood, tuna salad or a chicken salad that is doesn’t include sweet flavors as celery can overpower the overall delicate flavor profile of this salad.
I LOVE chicken salad but have never tried it with cherries. I may have to add this to the Mother’s Day Menu – thanks!
The dried cherries add a nice texture and provide a sweet tangy flavor.
We almost always have croissant at home. We buy it in bulk (I don’t know why, we need help haha) so yes, I am most definitely ready to try this very tasty looking chicken salad! Love the addition of cherries.
Croissants are buttery perfect we love them too!
Omg can we say yum?! This is definitely a recipe my hubby would love since he loves chicken salad!!!!
My husband loves it too =)
I really like chicken salad but I never would have thought to do a version with almonds and cherries. I’m curious to try all those flavours together.
It is actually really good if you enjoy savory dishes. In food is all about textures and combination of flavors. This is a winner on our recibe book.
I am loving the ingredients in your chicken salad recipe. I would make this and store it in the fridge for when my husband needs a late night snack, he can fix himself a sandwich. Thanks for the recipe.
These look amazing. I’d love to serve up and eat up these for a luncheon with my girlfriends. I know they’d love these too especially with such a fancy “bread” and a unique filling.
Wow! This looks absolutely delicious! I never would have thought to mix these ingredients together! I bet it’s amazing!
A classic chicken salad combination. There is great flavor and texture in this recipe. The croissant is a must to complete this sandwich.
Now that’s my kinda sandwich.. yum.. love that you added dried cherries. I usually like adding a dash of dried nuts and fruits too. It think it ads so much more.. isn’t it..!! Can’t wait to try this.
I love the addition of cherries in this salad. And I’m sure it would be delicious on a croissant. Your plates are really pretty as well 🙂

What a perfect salad for a light and lovely luncheon. I adore dried cherries and love the idea of using them in chicken salad.
I just recently became a chicken salad fan, and this one with cherries in it sounds so good! Especially on a flaky croissant.
It’s been a long time since I’ve made chicken salad but I am totally digging the flavors here. Cherry and almonds!? Heck yea!
That is a great chicken salad and love it the way you have served it on a croissant. It is a great way to jazz up a salad and my family would eat this very happily.

First of all, let me say that our kitchen is NEVER without Sazón seasoning. That is ever since we first discovered it. We get the huge size so we don’t run out. I bet the salad is delicious! What a nice luncheon the chicken makes with a croissant. Very special. Will have to make this — very soon.
