CHICKEN-CURRY3(M) USENET Cookbook CHICKEN-CURRY3(M) CURRY CHICKEN WITH GRAPES CHICKEN-CURRY3 - Chicken fruit salad curry One day I was invited to a beach picnic, and asked to bring a salad. A friend and I got together in his kitchen and con- cocted a curried chicken salad with grapes. It was deli- cious, but we forgot to write down the recipe. After some more experimentation, I have come up with this recipe. I don't know if it is the same as what we made that day at the beach, but it is delicious. INGREDIENTS (Serves 8-10) 6-8 boneless chicken breast pieces (3-4 chicken breasts, halved and boned) 2-6 cups seedless grapes (vary amount to taste) 2 cups mayonaise 4 tsp curry powder 3 tsp olive oil 1 tsp cayenne pepper 1/2 tsp ground black pepper 1 tsp fruit vinegar PROCEDURE (1) Make the sauce by mixing together all ingredients except the chicken and the grapes. Season to taste (sample by dipping a grape into the sauce and then eating it). (2) Broil the chicken breasts (3-5 minutes on each side in a preheated broiler), then dice or shred into small bite-sized pieces. (3) Mix chopped chicken with 2 cups of whole grapes. Cover with the sauce. Add more grapes to taste. My taste is to add vast quantities of grapes. RATING Difficulty: easy. Time: 20 minutes including cooking the chicken. Precision: no need to measure.
