A refreshing and flavorful chicken salad with a tropical twist, perfect for gatherings or a light meal.
Prepare the chicken by shredding it into bite-sized pieces.
Use freshly cooked chicken for the best flavor and texture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, diced pineapple, chopped celery, and finely diced onion.
Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Add the shredded chicken and chopped pecans to the bowl, and mix until evenly combined.
Fold gently to avoid breaking the chicken pieces.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper to taste.
Taste as you season to achieve the desired balance.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld.
Chilling enhances the flavor and texture of the salad.
Serve the salad garnished with whole pecans and shredded coconut.
Serve with crackers or in lettuce cups for a delightful presentation.
