Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil plus more for grill grates
1/4 cup white-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 6 ounces each)
1 mango, peeled, pitted, and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup cilantro leaves
1/4 cup mint leaves
1 tablespoon curry powder, preferably Madras
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
Coarse salt and black pepper
1 avocado, peeled, halved, pitted, and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
1 large bunch watercress, tough stems removed (3 cups)
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion

Steps:

For the chicken: In a shallow pan large enough to hold chicken in a single layer, whisk together oil, vinegar, and mustard; add chicken, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Heat the grill to high; lightly oil the grates. Lift chicken from marinade and discard any remaining marinade. Grill until fully cooked and opaque throughout, 6 to 8 minutes per side.
For the dressing: In a blender combine mango, cilantro, mint, curry powder, and vinegar. Puree until smooth. With the motor running, add oil; season with salt and pepper.
To serve: Slice chicken crosswise. Arrange on a platter or 4 serving plates, along with avocado, watercress, and onion; serve the dressing on the side.

I've made this salad several times and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken and mango. I also like to add some chopped avocado to the salad.

I'm not a huge fan of mango, but I decided to try this salad anyway. I'm so glad I did! The mango was actually really good in the salad. It added a nice sweetness and brightness. I'll definitely be making this salad again.

This salad is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can use whatever fruit I have on hand. I've made it with mango, pineapple, and even grapes. It's always delicious.
