Cooked chicken, red grapes, slivered almonds, and pineapple chunks make a lovely savory-sweet salad that's dressed with a mild curry mayonnaise. Papaya and avocado slices add color and flavor. Refrigerate overnight for the best flavor. Ingredients:
3 cups cubed cooked chicken |
1 pound seedless red grapes, halved |
1 (15 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained |
1 cup sliced celery |
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained |
1 cup mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon soy sauce |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 teaspoon curry powder |
1 cup toasted slivered almonds |
1 papaya - peeled, seeded, and sliced |
1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and sliced |
Directions:
1. Combine chicken, grapes, pineapple chunks, celery, and water chestnuts in a large salad bowl. Mix mayonnaise, soy sauce, lemon juice, and curry powder in a separate bowl. Pour dressing over salad and toss lightly to coat. Cover and chill 8 hours to overnight. Stir almonds into salad just before serving; garnish with papaya and avocado slices.
