Arby’s Grilled Chicken and Pecan Salad is a new menu item at Arby’s. Arby’s is known for their hearty roast beef sandwiches but they do so much more than roast beef.  They make a delicious nut and fruit filled grilled chicken salad like no one else.  Many places skimp on the nuts when they go into a recipe, well,  Arby’s knows how to make a chicken salad that is packed with all sorts of tasty ingredients.  You can try one of their Market Fresh Grilled Chicken and Pecan Salad sandwiches at home.

You don’t need to limit yourself to just a sandwich with this chicken salad, you could put this in a large tortilla for a wrap. This would go well in a submarine bun, I loved this with toasted sour dough bread. Honestly, this goes well simply scooped out and placed on a salad. If you don’t happen to have any grilled chicken around, you could use left over chicken that you may have from a baked chicken.

While they do not toast their pecans, I think you could easily bring this salad to the next level by toasting the pecans in a skillet on medium high heat just until they become fragrant. Allow the pecans to cool completely before preparing the chicken salad.
