Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup mango chutney (any brand of Major Grey's style)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tsp curry powder
  • 1-1/2 cups cooked & diced chicken
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
  • 1 celery stalk, diced finely
  • 1-2 green onions, minced
  • salt, black pepper & cayenne pepper, to taste

Directions
  1. Either chop the large chunks of fruit in the mango chutney, or use a blender or mini food processor to make a chunky puree.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together the chutney, mayonnaise, & curry powder.
  3. Add the chicken, toasted almonds, celery, & green onions. *Note: If the chicken salad will not be eaten immediately , then the almonds can be added later. This will maintain their crunch.
  4. Stir salt, black pepper & cayenne pepper into chutney & chicken mixture, to suit your taste. (Suggested quantities: 1-2 pinches salt, 4 fresh grinds of black pepper, & 4-8 light sprinkles of cayenne pepper. Start with the lesser amount & add more, if desired.)
  5. Serve as a sandwich with lettuce, as a salad on a bed of lettuce, or eat it as is.
  6. ** Variations possible include adding: diced apple; currants; raisins; using garam masala instead of curry powder (garam masala is another type of Indian spice blend, predominantly cinnamon, cardamom, & clove).

Yummy..I love chicken salad sandwiches and this sounds great!


Delicious! I made a double batch with most of a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store since it is too danged hot to turn on the stove here. I am keeping the almonds on the side so we can add them to individual servings so they don't get soggy. This is definitely a keeper. Thanks Rhianna.


Super... super recipe!
