Old Fashioned Curried Chicken Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the chicken breasts on a sheet pan and rub the skin with olive oil. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Remove the meat from the bones, discard the skin, and dice the chicken into large bite-size pieces.
• For the dressing, combine the mayonnaise, wine, chutney, curry powder, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until smooth.
• Combine the chicken with enough dressing to moisten well. Add the celery, scallions, and raisins, and mix well. Refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Add the cashews and serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Bring the broth and water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add chicken to broth and simmer, covered, for 8 minutes. Turn the heat off and let chicken stand in the cooking liquid, covered, until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove the chicken from the broth and cool completely in the refrigerator. Cut into 1/4-inch dice. Toast the almonds in a small dry skillet over medium-high heat until fragrant and beginning to turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
• In a large bowl, stir together the yogurt, mayonnaise, and curry powder. Fold in the chicken, grapes and cilantro and season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• In a large bowl, toss the greens with the oil, lemon juice and salt and pepper, to taste. Arrange the greens on 4 individual plates, top with a scoop of the chicken salad and sprinkle with the almonds.

Steps:

• Cut the roast chicken into small pieces and discard the skin and bones. Put the chicken, raisins, almonds, scallions and celery in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix the mayonnaise, yogurt, cream, curry powder, cilantro, sugar and some salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and gently toss to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Allow to chill for several hours (or even overnight).
• Before serving, garnish with more raisins and slivered almonds. Serve on a bed of lettuce or in a sandwich.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the chicken in a roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast until the juices run clear, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Let cool completely before using for chicken salad.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly coat a baking dish with cooking spray.
• Season chicken evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and onion powder. Place in the prepared baking dish and cover tightly with foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until juices run clear and chicken shreds easily, about 1 hour 20 minutes; don't overcook. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Remove from the oven, uncover, and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes. Reserve any accumulated chicken broth.
• Prepare dressing while chicken cools. Combine 1 cup mayonnaise, sour cream, relish, green onions, parsley, Dijon, lemon juice, dill, and remaining salt and pepper in a large bowl; mix until well combined.
• Break chicken into large pieces and place in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 3 to 5 times to shred chicken to desired consistency.
• Transfer chicken to a bowl. Add celery and pour dressing over top; toss to coat. If more moisture is desired, add reserved broth or more mayonnaise.
• Cover and chill for at least 2 hours (or up to 2 days) before serving. Stir well before serving.

Steps:

• To make the chicken: in a large pot, combine the chicken, butter, chopped celery and onion, poultry seasoning, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Add enough water to cover generously, cover, and heat to boiling. Reduce to a simmer, cooking the breasts about 10 minutes or the cutlets about 3. Turn off the heat and let the chicken stand in the cooking liquid until cooked through, about 10 minutes for the breasts and about 2 for the cutlets. Remove the chicken to a bowl. Cool and cut into bite-size pieces.
• To make the salad: combine the minced celery and the onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper and all of the remaining ingredients in a bowl and mix. Add the chicken, tossing it gently until coated. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until serving.
