I use low cal mayo,but I do love salad in hot weather,alfresco with a chilled glass of wine.I once made a Waldorf salad for a buffet at one of my Disney parties and it went down a storm.
There is salad with chicken and there is chicken salad. Salad with chicken is greens and other items (tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, etc) with cut up chicken in it. That is (relatively) healthy.
Then there is chicken salad. Cut up chicken with a "dressing" made mainly of mayonnaise. You can add other items, such as celery, bell peppers, parsley, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, etc, but they are all minor ingredients as compared to the mayo. (I like to add halves red grapes myself). There are a number of "salads" in the US that are made this way. Cole Slaw, Potato Salad, Egg Salad, Carrot and Raisin Salad, The incredibly misnamed "Health Salad", and a number of others.
Now, as for fried chicken - Traditional fried chicken (dredged in flour, fried in a skillet) is quite tasty, but if you can find it, try traditional Korean fried chicken (somtimes called "paper skin chicken"). It is deep fried twice, like a french fry, once at a lower temp to cook it, and then again at higher temps to crisp it. There is no coating, but they sauce it afterwards. It is some of the juciest chicken, with a very thin and crispy skin. Around here there are a few Bon-Chon Chicken places (thats a chain) and there is also a place called "Peck-Peck" that an indeoendent shop. I doubt they will ever have it at WDW on a kiosk because it does not hold well. A order takes 20 minutes to make, so it really is either restaruant food, or something you have to call ahead for.

If the only fried chicken you have ever had is KFC then the only way to go is up. KFC fried chicken is fair at best.
Chicken salad,way too healthy for me.Boneless wings in hell fire sauce,now that's what am talking about.
