Warm Chicken Salad Wcurry Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Stir curry powder in small skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer to medium bowl. Add light mayonnaise, yogurt, mango chutney, minced ginger, and grated orange peel. Whisk to blend. Stir in chicken, grapes, green onions, and chopped walnuts. Season salad to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

Steps:

• Place the mustard, curry powder, vinegar and scallions in a saucepan. Blend well over low heat with a wire whisk. Add the oil, blending well. Remove from the heat and add salt, pepper and basil. Keep warm.

Steps:

• Set a steamer basket in a large pot filled with about 1" salted water. Cover pot and bring water to a boil. Add potatoes, cover, and steam until just tender, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut breast meat from chicken, remove and discard skin, and slice on the bias into 1/2" slices. Remove legs from carcass, remove and discard skin, and slice meat off bones into 1/2" slices.
• Whisk mayonnaise, dill, lemon juice, mustard, pepper, and 1/4 tsp. salt in a medium bowl.
• Add asparagus and chicken slices to potatoes in steamer, cover, and steam until asparagus is crisp-tender and chicken is warmed through, about 3 minutes. Transfer potatoes, asparagus, and chicken to a platter or plates and drizzle with dressing. Top with watercress and mint and serve with lemon wedges alongside.

Steps:

• Heat the oil over moderate heat and add the onions.
• Cook until softened, then remove from heat.

• Add the tomato ketchup, apricot jam and mango chutney to the onions, but do not cook.
• When this mixture is cool, fold it into the mayonnaise.
• Lightly whip the cream, and fold through as well.
• On a large serving dish, spread some of the creamy curry dressing over the base.
• Arrange the chicken fillets over the dressing.
• Spoon remaining dressing over the chicken, enough to coat each portion.
• Chill for several hours to allow flavors to blend.
• Just before serving, surround the chicken with the fruit of your choice.
• Garnish with sprigs of cilantro.
• Hand nuts around separately for each person to sprinkle on their own portion.

Steps:

• If chicken breasts are connected, separate halves and cut away membrane or fat. Place oil in mixing bowl with lemon juice, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper. Stir well. Add chicken pieces and turn them in the marinade to coat well. Cover and set aside until ready to cook. (If marinating for a long period, refrigerate them.)
• Preheat a charcoal grill or broiler.
• Put the chicken pieces on the grill or the broiler rack. Cover grill or close broiler. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, turning pieces. Continue cooking till done, about 3 to 5 minutes on the grill, possibly longer under the broiler.
• Remove pieces. Slice each breast on the bias about 1/4 inch thick.
• In a large mixing bowl add the radicchio, bibb lettuce and arugula. Toss well. Add half the warm dressing, and toss again. Place the sliced chicken over the salad and sprinkle with the remaining dressing and basil.
