In a large bowl, combine first five ingredients. Mix mayonnaise, curry powder, and pepper; stir into chicken mixture. Refrigerate until serving. To serve, stir in pecans. Spoon onto lettuce-lined rolls.
Notes
Chicken Salad Party Sandwiches
My famous chicken salad arrives at the party chilled in a plastic container. When it’s time to set out the food, I stir in the pecans and assemble the sandwiches. They’re a hit at buffet-style potlucks. —Trisha Kruse, Eagle, Idaho
