Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups Cooked Chicken Breast, diced
  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp Greek Yogurt
  • 2 tsp Curry Powder
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
  • 1/2 cup Roasted Cashews, roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup Golden Raisins
  • 1/4 cup Green Onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/8 tsp Cayenne Pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, greek yogurt, curry powder, honey, and fresh lime juice until the dressing is smooth and a vibrant golden color.
  • Season with salt and cayenne pepper. Taste the dressing on its own and adjust the curry powder or honey to your preference.
  • Add the diced cooked chicken breast to the bowl and toss until all the pieces are evenly coated in the curry dressing.
  • Fold in the golden raisins and sliced green onions. Mix gently until they are distributed throughout the salad.
  • Add the chopped roasted cashews and fresh cilantro. Fold them through the salad just until combined so the cashews stay chunky.
  • Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This lets the curry flavor develop and the raisins plump slightly. Serve in pita pockets, on naan bread, or over a bed of greens.
