CURRIED CHICKEN SALAD WITH RAISINS AND HONEY



Curried Chicken Salad With Raisins and Honey image

What to do with leftover chicken? This recipe is from my heros at America's Test Kitchens. Since the chicken was already cooked, it was just a matter of putting together the sauce, which takes only minutes. I used dried cranberrys in place of the raisins. We used the salad in pita bread. Now I'm posting for safekeeping and to provide an option to everyone else asking what to do with leftover chicken. I'm posting the instructions as published in Cook's magazine, which include cooking the chicken.
