CURRY CHICKEN SALAD WITH GRAPES



Curry Chicken Salad with Grapes image

After the news that a local cafe was closing, I begged the owner for this recipe. The sweetness of the red grapes compliments the curry perfectly and the almonds provide a nice crunch. It's always a hit and I'm always asked for the recipe. It's nice served over a large leaf of romaine, on a croissant, or just out of the bowl with a fork!

CURRIED CHICKEN SALAD WITH GRAPES



Curried Chicken Salad With Grapes image

A touch of curry makes this salad interesting but not overpowered like some. This calls for roasting chicken (better flavor than poaching), but I prefer to use rotisserie chicken. It is so easy and flavorful, not to mention a time saver. I always season to taste, but the measurements should be about right. I toss the salad the night before to give the flavors time to meld.

Provided by Brianna Storer

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 55m

Yield 8 1 cup servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 chicken breasts, halved bone-in
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt
pepper
seasoning, such as Mrs. Dash
1 3/4 cups diced celery
2 cups halved red grapes
1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
2/3 cup sour cream
4 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon curry powder
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Place chicken on rack inside a 9"x13" pan. Rub breasts with olive oil. Season with salt, pepper and Mrs. Dash (or similar seasoning).
  • Roast until no longer pink, about 45 minutes.
  • Cool until easy to handle. Remove skin and bones. Shred meat into bite-sized pieces. (Shredding instead of cubing allows the dressing to adhere to the chicken more easily.).
  • Meanwhile, combine dressing ingredients. Taste often to reach desired outcome.
  • Combine chicken, celery and grapes. Toss with enough dressing to coat, allowing for a little extra as the chicken will absorb some while melding in the refrigerator.
  • Best chilled overnight, but it is still great if you can't wait that long.
  • Serve alone or with rolls for sandwiches.

CURRIED RICE & EGG SALAD



Curried rice & egg salad image

Enjoy this lightly spiced rice and egg salad as a side dish at a summer barbecue or picnic. Top with toasted almonds, grated carrots and sliced cucumbers

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Side dish

Time 37m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tbsp olive or rapeseed oil
1 onion , chopped
2 tbsp mild curry paste (we used korma paste)
1 tsp ground turmeric
300g basmati rice
50g raisins
1 chicken or vegetable stock cube
3 eggs
small bunch of coriander , leaves picked
30g flaked almonds , toasted
2 carrots , grated or finely shredded
½ cucumber , sliced

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion for 8-10 mins until soft and just turning golden. Boil the kettle. Stir the curry paste, ground turmeric, rice and raisins into the onions. Crumble over the stock cube and pour over enough boiled water from the kettle to cover the rice by ½cm (about 1 litre). Season with some salt. Bring to a gentle simmer, then cover the pan, reduce the heat to its lowest setting and cook for 2 mins more. Without taking off the lid, remove from the heat and leave to steam for 15 mins. This will give you perfect, fluffy rice.
  • Meanwhile, bring another pan of water to the boil and cook the eggs for 7 mins. Plunge into a bowl of cold water to stop them cooking and once cool, drain and halve.
  • Tip the rice into a container and chill for at least 1 hr, or up to two days. When you're ready to serve, scatter over the coriander and almonds, and top with the grated carrot, cucumber slices and eggs.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh, ripe grapes and vegetables, and use a flavorful curry powder.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of curry powder to your taste. If you like a mild curry, use less powder. If you like a more intense flavor, use more.
  • Be sure to toast the cashews before adding them to the salad. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • If you don't have any fresh cilantro on hand, you can use dried cilantro instead. Just be sure to use half the amount, as dried cilantro is more concentrated.
  • Serve the salad immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Curried rice salad with grapes is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a new salad to try, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
