Can I use rotisserie chicken?

Yes! Rotisserie chicken saves time and adds extra flavor. Just shred or dice it finely.

What apples work best?

Crisp, firm apples like Gala, Fuji, or Honeycrisp hold their texture. Avoid soft or mealy types.

Unfortunately, no. Mayo-based salads don’t freeze well. The texture changes significantly upon thawing.

Nope. The curry flavor is warm, not hot. You can spice it up by adding chili flakes or hot sauce.

Chicken Curry Salad blends tender chicken with apples, grapes, curry, and creamy dressing for a colorful, flavorful lunch or snack.

2 cups shredded cooked chicken

1 cup apples, diced

1 cup seedless red grapes, halved

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1 teaspoon curry powder

1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

1. In a large bowl, combine chicken, apples, and grapes.

2. In a small bowl, whisk mayonnaise, curry powder, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

3. Pour dressing over the chicken mixture.

4. Stir gently until evenly coated.

5. Taste and adjust seasoning.

6. Serve on lettuce, in croissants, or with crackers.

Add chopped celery or toasted nuts for crunch.

Make ahead and chill to let flavors meld.

Swap mayo for yogurt for a lighter version.
