Curried Chicken Salad Sandwiches
Serves 4.
Ingredients:
1 pre-cooked rotisserie chicken
3-4 heaping tablespoons light mayonnaise
1/4 cup dried cranberries ("Craisins")
1/4 cup red grapes, quartered
1/4 cup pecans, roughly chopped
1/4 cup celery, minced
Juice of 1/2 lime
Yellow curry powder, to taste (about 1 tablespoon)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
White or wheat sliced bread
Instructions:
Using a knife, remove breast meat from pre-cooked chicken. Chop the meat into small pieces. (Use dark meat too, if you don't mind the added fat and calories.)
Add chopped meat to large mixing bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, and then 1 or 2 more if needed and depending on your preference. Add cranberries, grapes, pecans, and celery. Stir so that all ingredients are coated with the mayonnaise. Squeeze in the juice of 1/2 lime. Add curry powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir again until all ingredients are covered in the curry. Finished salad should have a nice yellow color.
Serve on white or wheat sliced bread, or on a bed of butter lettuce.
