Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 medium/large cooked chicken breasts, shredded
3 stalks celery, small-diced
½ cup roasted cashews, plus more to taste
½ cup golden raisins, plus more to taste
½ cup roasted and salted pistachios (shells removed)

½ cup chopped Italian parsley
1 cup Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon yellow curry powder
1 to 2 tablespoons honey (plus more to taste)

Steps:

  • Make the honey curry dressing: In a bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, curry powder, honey, garlic powder. Then, mix in the freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust if needed - for more sweetness, add more honey. For more acidity, squeeze a little bit more lemon juice.
  • In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken, celery, cashews, raisins, pistachios, scallions, and Italian parsley along with the prepared honey curry dressing. Season with more salt and pepper if needed.
  • Serve and enjoy! I love serving it over a bed of mixed greens. You can also make sandwiches or wraps.
