Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 ounces green beans, trimmed, halved crosswise
2 cups shredded roasted chicken breast meat (from about 3 chicken breast halves)
1 cup thinly sliced red onion
5 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/3 cup plain nonfat yogurt
3 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons sliced almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • Stir curry powder in small skillet over medium heat until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Transfer to small bowl. Whisk in yogurt, mayonnaise and lime juice. Add dressing to chicken mixture; toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with almonds and remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, crisp apples. Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples are good choices.
  • If you don't have any curry powder, you can make your own by combining ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, and ginger.
  • To save time, you can use pre-cooked chicken. Just shred it or cut it into small pieces before adding it to the salad.
  • If you don't have any almonds, you can use other nuts, such as walnuts or pecans.
  • For a lighter salad, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
  • Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later.
