Jalapeno Chicken Salad

(update: i just found out that the creator of this recipe is recipezaar member dawnie2u! how cool is that?) i just got this recipe from cook's country magazine. a cook named dawn from san diego, california submitted it to the magazine and won first place in a chicken salad contest. we loved it so much, i thought i'd share it right away. you can find the pickled jalapeños in a can in the mexican/ethnic section at the supermarket. you can also use this recipe for tuna. i served this over tostadas (crispy fried tortillas).
