A <a href=\"https:\/\/urlgeni.us\/amzn\/itAjx\">wild rice blend<\/a> would work in this recipe as well.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>green onions<\/strong> &#8211; also known as scallions, these add just a touch of flavor (and color!) without being too overpowering.&nbsp; You could also use red onion in this if you like a stronger onion taste.<\/li>\n<li><strong>celery<\/strong> &#8211; gives this salad a nice crunch!<\/li>\n<li><strong>almonds<\/strong> &#8211; just like with the celery, these almond slivers gives this salad texture and a nice crunch!&nbsp; Feel free to use any type of nuts you\u2019d like such as cashews, walnuts, pecans, etc.<\/li>\n<li><strong>dressing<\/strong> &#8211; this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eatyourselfskinny.com\/lemon-tarragon-salad-dressing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lemon dijon tarragon dressing<\/a> brightens up this salad and is really simple to make.<\/li>\n<li><strong>salt + pepper<\/strong> &#8211; for added flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Make Wild Rice Chicken Salad<\/h2>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cook the wild rice. <\/strong> Make the wild rice either in a medium saucepan on the stove (or you could use your <a href=\"https:\/\/urlgeni.us\/amzn\/instantpt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instant Pot<\/a>) and follow the package directions. Wild rice does take a while to cook so set aside about 40 to 50 minutes for this.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make the dressing. <\/strong> While the wild rice is cooking, whisk together the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eatyourselfskinny.com\/lemon-tarragon-salad-dressing\/\">lemon tarragon dressing<\/a>.

Made with fresh tarragon and lemon juice along with olive oil, white wine vinegar, dijon mustard, honey and salt\/pepper, this dressing just pairs so well with the earthy flavors of the wild rice and juicy chicken.  Most wild rice chicken salads are made with mayo, but the tarragon dressing in this salad is lighter and more flavorful!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Make Wild Rice in the Instant Pot<\/h2>\n<p>The thing about making wild rice that can be frustrating is that it can take over an hour to cook, unless you have an <a href=\"https:\/\/urlgeni.us\/amzn\/instantpt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instant Pot<\/a>! Making wild rice in your Instant Pot takes literally half the time and is super easy! Here&#8217;s how to make it:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Combine wild rice, water and a 1\/4 teaspoon of salt in the bowl of your Instant Pot.<\/li>\n<li>Close the lid and lock (making sure the valve is on sealing and not venting), select the Manual setting and set the timer for 28 minutes. Now let wild rice cook.<\/li>\n<li>When done let the pressure release naturally for about about 9 minutes.
