How to make The Best Curry Chicken Salad With Grapes And Walnuts

Ingredients

• 6 Boneless Chicken Breasts full cooked
• 1 Cup Mayonnaise If your chicken salad is too dry, add two tablespoons of mayonnaise or until you get the right consistency.
• 1/2 Cup Chopped Walnuts
• 1 Cup Green Seedless Grapes chopped or cut in quarters
• 1 TBSP Curry Powder
• 1/4 TSP Salt
• 1/4 TSP Black Ground Pepper
• 1/2 TSP Celery Powder Option: You could add 1/4 cup of chopped celery.

Chop the grapes and walnuts

While your 6 boneless chicken breast are baking, you can cut up the green seedless grapes and walnuts. If the grapes are large, I will cut in half and then again (quarters). It is a personal preference to chopping these items.

shred the chicken

You can cut the chicken into cubes or shred. To shred, add the slightly warm chicken breasts to the bowl of a Kitchenaid Mixer. Beat with paddle until the chicken is shredded. It is very quick.

mix all the ingredients together

In a large mixing bowl with chicken, add all of the ingredients and mix well. If the chicken salad is a little on the dry side, you can add more mayonnaise until your desire consistency. I tend to add two tablespoons at a time. I have found that chicken breast sizes in a pack can vary. Therefore, the amount of mayonnaise may vary as well.

chill for at least 30 minutes before serving

It is best to Chill chicken salad in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving. This Curry Chicken Salad can be made up to 24 hours ahead of time.

You need to store the Curry Chicken Salad in the refrigerator. Store in an airtight container or cover the top of the bowl with Glad Cling Plastic Wrap.  It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container. I do not recommended to freeze.
