Dill Walnut Chicken Salad

Saturday was another Farmer's Market day. One of the items I bought was this gorgeous dill. I knew immediately what I wanted to make. Some grilled chicken salad with fresh dill, walnuts and a bit of salty feta cheese.   I think you will really enjoy this combination of flavors.  Let me know what you think!

There is nothing that compares to the taste of fresh
herbs. I love dill but almost always think of it
only when cooking fish.
Your presentation and recipe for the salad looks
phenominal.
