Curried Chicken Salad
There's chicken salad and then there's my curried chicken salad. Sweet, savory, and robust in flavor -- y'all will love it!
Ingredients
- 4 c. cooked chicken diced
- 1.75 c. good mayonnaise such as Duke's
- 1.5 tbsp. curry powder more to taste
- 1 c. whole cashews
- 1 c. celery chopped
- 2 green onions chopped
- ¼ red onion diced
- .25 c. raisins
- ½ lime juiced
- kosher salt to taste
Instructions
- If preparing your own chicken, cook via your desired method: boiling, in the oven, or stovetop. Dice chicken once cooled.
- Add chicken to a large mixing bowl. To the bowl, add mayonnaise, red onion, celery, green onion, lime juice, raisins, and curry powder. Mix until well-incorporated and refrigerate.
- Prior to serving, stir in cashews. Enjoy!
Notes
- As curry is the main seasoning, purchase a good quality curry powder.
- If you do not want to make your own chicken, purchase a rotisserie and dice the white meat.
- Stir in the cashews right before serving. This will ensure that they stay crunchy, adding a wonderful texture to this dish.
