DINNER PARTY CHICKEN CURRY
Adapted from a 1974 Woman's Day magazine clipping tucked into my Great Aunt's recipe files. The clipping is splotched and well worn, a good sign that this was tried & enjoyed. This recipe has instructions designed for a dinner party - you prepare the curry earlier in the day, keep it ready in the fridge until shortly before your guests arrive (the earlier in the day part takes about and hour to cook, the final cooking takes 1 hours and 15 minutes, plus the time it takes to preheat your oven).

- Use high-quality chicken. Fresh, free-range, or organic chicken will give your salad the best flavor.
- Cook the chicken properly. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough, so make sure to cook it until it is just cooked through.

- Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. Curry powder is a classic ingredient in chicken curry salad, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste.
- Make sure to chill the salad before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the salad will be more refreshing.
Conclusion:
