Curry Chicken Salad on Spring Greens

Savor and Share!

Curry Chicken Salad on Spring Greens is a popular menu item for a luncheon or afternoon tea, but I do not often think to make it at home. The ingredients are easy to customize, though I do recommend homemade mayo and The Spice Hunter Curry Seasoning for the finest tasting results. If you don’t have time to cook the chicken ahead, a rotisserie chicken works just as well.

Curry Chicken Salad on Romaine

Part of its versatility is how many different ways you can serve it. Instead of a bed of lettuce, opt for seeded crackers as an appetizer or Sprouted Whole Wheat Slider Buns for sandwiches. Curry Chicken Salad Boats make it easy to prepare for a bridal shower or baby shower and if you sub Tamari for the soy sauce, your gluten-free friends can enjoy it too.
