Cashew Chicken Salad Croissants

Cashew Chicken Salad Croissants

Today I've got another recipe from my Brinn's birthday party.  

I was introduced to these croissants sandwiches by my Mom and sister Shawny a few years ago, and its been true love ever since.  They pack such a symphony of textures and flavors; light crunchy cashews and sweet fresh fruit balance perfectly with creamy shredded chicken.  All enclosed in a flakey, buttery croissant. 


Oh baby.  I need one right now.      

These are perfect party fare--Superbowl!--they're oh so easy to whip up so you can relax and chill with the posse.  

Make 'em.  


Cashew Chicken Salad Croissants
Recipe by Bliss From Scratch, inspired by Linda Christian and Shawny Hunt | Printable Version

  • 2 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (I use Costco's Kirkland brand canned chicken)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 4 teaspoons buttermilk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2/3 cup tart apple, chopped
  • 1/2 cup unsalted cashews
  • 1 cup red grapes, halved
  • 6 croissants, halved

In a large bowl combine the chicken, mayo, buttermilk, salt and pepper and stir until well combined.  Add the apple, cashews and grapes, stir gently until combined.  Spoon onto the halved croissants and serve. Enjoy!
