Chicken Salad Sandwiches

2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cooked (boil them in water about 20 minutes or
bake 25 minutes in a 350 degree oven, or use leftovers

Chop or shred chicken breasts in bite-sized pieces in a medium sized bowl and add:

3-4 ribs of celery, diced
2-4 onions china (green), finely sliced
1/4 cup chopped pecans (not too finely)
1/4 cup craisins and/or golden raisins, if from Peru cut the raisins in half

Stir together and add enough mayonaise and a little lime juice, salt and pepper to the desired moistness. You can also thin it with a little milk.
I add more or less of these basic ingredients according to what I have or feel like and sometimes add a little curry powder to taste for a zestier flavor.

Serve on fresh croissants. Also good on crackers for a snack or appetizer.
