Curry Chicken Salad

When Micah and I were dating he mentioned that he absolutely went crazy for curry chicken salad. I thought “Hey, I can make that!”. to say that I didn’t develop this recipe to gain his favor and prove my domestic skills would be a lie.

He tells me that he likes this one better than the original one. Maybe that’s just because he wants me to make it for him. Either way, we all know the chicken salad you get in the deli is loaded with far too much mayo and sugar. The Greek yogurt in this recipe makes the chicken salad nice and tangy! This is a great snack to keep prepped in the fridge during the week to eat when you’re too lazy to cook something.

Also, because I am posting this a week before thanksgiving I want you to know that if you have any leftover turkey this would be a great thing to make with it.

Ingredients:

1 finely chopped red onion

3/4 cup chopped cilantro

1/2 cup mayo

1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt

1 Tablespoon + 1 tsp curry

1/2 cup rice wine vinegar

2 Tablespoon Maple Syrup

1 1/2 tsp salt

1 finely chopped green apple

1/2 cup golden raisins

6 1/2 cups shredded chicken (about a whole chicken)

In a large bowl combine the yogurt, mayo, vinegar, curry, salt, and stir well. Add the chicken and coat well. Add remaining ingredients and mix. Add salt and pepper if needed and enjoy by itself or put on a sandwich.
