CURRY CHICKEN SALAD
I can never get enough! Maxine and Linda inspired me to write this recipe. Although it is not exactly how they make it, it is close. They prefer Miracle Whip, and don't add the onions. I used this to stuff the small puff pastries (Recipe #186307) to make hors d'oeuvres. I dice and chop finely for the hors d'oeuvres, and coarsely for sandwiches or salad.

Steps:
- Hard boil eggs, then chop. (I put eggs in a pan in cold water, bring to boil, remove from heat, cover, let stand 17 minutes, drain water, cover with cold water and ice for 5 minutes, then peel).
- While eggs are cooking, dice chicken, celery, pickle and onion (finely for hors d'oeuvres, coarsely for sandwiches or salads).
- Mix chicken, celery, onion, pickle, and eggs in medium sized bowl.
- Add mayonnaise, and mix together adding sugar, salt, and pepper to your taste.
- Serve on bed of lettuce for salad, on toast for sandwiches, or stuff puffs for hors d'oeuvres. Part of prep time is during cooking of the eggs.

CURRIED CHICKEN SALAD
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the chicken breasts on a sheet pan and rub the skin with olive oil. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Remove the meat from the bones, discard the skin, and dice the chicken into large bite-size pieces.
- For the dressing, combine the mayonnaise, wine, chutney, curry powder, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until smooth.
- Combine the chicken with enough dressing to moisten well. Add the celery, scallions, and raisins, and mix well. Refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Add the cashews and serve at room temperature.

CHICKEN EGG SALAD
I love both Chicken Salad and Egg Salad sandwiches. Today I felt inspired to create a recipe which really highlighted both ingredients. This recipe doesn't have any fruit in it because I prefer no fruit in my sandwiches. For those of you who are watching your carbs this would be very good stuffed in a large tomato or on top of a green salad too. Chilling enhances flavor, but if you are hungry enough eating it immediately after preparing it tastes pretty wonderful too. Cooking time is chilling time.

CURRY CHICKEN SALAD WITH GRAPES
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!

Curry Chicken Salad with Eggs: A Flavorful and Protein-Packed Dish
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the flavor of your curry chicken salad. Use free-range chicken, fresh vegetables, and flavorful herbs and spices.
- Cook the chicken properly: To ensure that your chicken is tender and juicy, cook it over medium heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Chop the vegetables finely: Finely chopping the vegetables will help them to distribute evenly throughout the salad and will make it easier to eat.
- Don't overmix the salad: Overmixing the salad will make it mushy. Gently stir the ingredients together until they are just combined.
- Chill the salad before serving: Chilling the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving will allow the flavors to meld together and will make the salad more refreshing.
Conclusion:
Curry chicken salad with eggs is a delicious, protein-packed dish that is perfect for lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
