Isn't that pretty! This is a gorgeous chicken salad that tastes heavenly! I have several chicken salad recipes that I make but this is my favorite. The flavors all blend together and work perfectly.
You could certainly make this a bit lighter. You could use fat free mayo and not as much of the fiesta corn. All I had was the light mayonnaise and I LOVE lots of the corn in the salad so I put a lot.
I've also used this as an appetizer and put the chicken salad in the baked tortilla scoops.
