MANGO SLAW



Mango Slaw image

There is absolutely nothing new about coleslaw, but there is something slightly intriguing about coleslaw with mangos. Often, when we think of coleslaw, we think of it as a side for fish and chips, barbecue, or heavy, mayonnaise-drenched cabbage. But just think about the cool, crunchy sweetness of the cabbage, carrots and mango, paired with the spicy kick of jerk chicken. What's a better combination? You also don't have to serve it as a side: It can be tucked into a sandwich or wrap. One of the best things about this recipe is that all the ingredients are readily available, and there are many shortcuts you can take, like using a bagged mix. Who wants to ruin their knuckles on a box grater, or break out the food processor?

CHICKEN SALAD WITH MANGO-YOGURT DRESSING



Chicken Salad With Mango-Yogurt Dressing image

I often roast whole chickens or turkey breasts to use for our lunches (less expensive and healthier than deli meats) and am always on the lookout for new recipes for different sandwiches, wraps and salads. My husband and I tried this today for lunch and we both really liked it. The yogurt dressing was a nice change from the usual mayo-based dressing and will be great for those warm summer days. My husband and I love curry, so I used 1 1/2 teaspoons curry when I made this and may use 2 teaspoons next time. I used cashews, but think the pistachios will be good too. I think adding some diced Granny Smith apple or swapping dried cranberries for the raisins would be other good variations. This Indian-inspired recipe is adopted from a cookbook from Lorna Sass.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups diced cooked chicken
1 cup diced celery
1/3 cup raisins
1/2 cup pistachios or 1/2 cup chopped roasted cashews
1 cup whole milk or 1 cup low-fat plain yogurt
3 tablespoons sweet mango chutney (more to taste)
1 teaspoon curry powder (more to taste)
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Toss the chicken and other salad ingredients in a large bowl or storage container. Blend the ingredients for the dressing. Pour dressing onto the chicken mixture and toss gently to coat. Adjust seasonings before serving.
  • Salad may be served immediately. I like to refrigerate for several hours first before serving to allow the flavors to come out.
  • Prep and cooking time doesn't include cooking time for the chicken and are estimations.
