APPLE & MANGO CURRIED CHICKEN SALAD

Apple & Mango Curried Chicken Salad image

This salad is fresh and appealing with several distinct flavors that meld together beautifully. The apple and celery add a nice crunch and there is a mild spicy kick with the addition of curry powder. For guests who enjoy curry, I would definitely entertain with this dish. It is filling, delicious and it presents well. This recipe is adapted from Good Housekeeping light and healthy recipes (2007).

Time 35m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
6 tablespoons low-fat yogurt (1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp)
2 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
2 tablespoons salsa
1 tablespoon lime juice, freshly squeezed
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 mango, ripe (substitute mandarin orange slices, if desired)
1 apple, a small Fiji apple (if you would like more tang, use a less-sweet apple such as Granny Smith)
1 stalk celery, medium sized
4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese
6 -8 sprigs cilantro
1 cup greens (field greens, about two small handfuls)

Steps:

Cook the chicken breast in an oven preheated to 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes (until no longer pink in the center).
As the chicken is baking, combine the yogurt, mayonnaise, salsa, lime juice and curry powder in a medium bowl. Stir to combine.
Peel and de-seed the mango then chop into half-inch chunks (I haven't tried this salad with mandarin orange slices, but I think they would make a nice substitution if mango is unavailable).
Remove the apple's core and chop into one-inch chunks. Chop the celery into 1/4-1/2 inch chunks. Cut the fresh mozzarella into one-inch chunks.
Add the mango, apple, celery and mozzarella to the bowl. Toss to combine.
Finely chop the cilantro. Add the cilantro and field greens to the bowl and stir to combine.
Shred the cooked chicken after it has cooled (cutting the chicken into small cubes would work as well, but shredded chicken adds a nice texture to the dish). Add to the bowl and toss.
Serves four as a small dish or serves two as a large dish.

Time 15m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1/2 cup cubed mango
3 cups shredded cooked chicken
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup diced celery
1/4 cup diced red onion
3/4 teaspoon prepared mustard
1 pinch salt
1 pinch black pepper
1 pinch curry powder
1/2 apple, diced
1/4 scotch bonnet pepper, finely diced

Steps:

Mix all ingredients and refrigerate 30 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Can be served on a roll, with crisp lettuce, or on greens, as a salad.

Tips:

Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
Choose Ripe Fruit: For the best flavor, use ripe mangoes and apples. Ripe mangoes should be slightly soft to the touch and have a sweet aroma. Ripe apples should be firm but not hard, and have a slightly sweet taste.
Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro and mint can add a lot of flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use less since they are more concentrated.
Don't Overdress the Salad: A little dressing goes a long way. Start with a small amount of dressing and then add more to taste. Overdressing the salad will make it soggy and bland.
Serve Immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The longer it sits, the more the flavors will meld together and the salad will become less crisp.

Conclusion:

Apple mango chicken salad is a refreshing and flavorful salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its combination of sweet, savory, and tangy flavors, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
