Curried Chicken Salad with Peach Chutney
I am a big fan of diners drive in and dives. And saw this recipe and I just had to re create this Curried chicken Salad with Peach Chutney. I didn't have all the ingredients what I saw on the show but replaced them with what I thought was right. I did not use sugar I used honey. I didn't use almonds I used pecans. When you make it, it will even taste better the next day.
Materials
For the Peach Chutney:
- 1 can sliced peaches in juice 14
- 3/4 cup diced red pepper
- 3/4 cup diced onion
- 1/4 raisins
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 cup cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 1/2 cup water
- salt and pepper to taste
For the chicken Salad:
- Chicken breast
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 to 2 teaspoons curry powder to taste
- 4 green onions sliced
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Put in a 350F preheated oven for about 20min.
- Combine all the ingredients for the chutney and simmer until the liquid is reduced by 2/3. Taste should be sweet and sour. Cool to room temp. That takes about 1 hour.
- Shred the chicken. On the show they took a third of the chicken and pulse in a food processor until finely ground, I left that part out.
- Combine the curry yogurt/mayo, ground chicken, and chicken chunks, with the green onions and chopped pecans. Stir in one cup of the peach chutney. Taste add more chutney as needed. Serve between bread slices with lettuce and tomatoes.
