hasan

30 min total · 20 min hands-on · Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 4 cups chopped cooked chicken
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks
  • 1 cup celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped scallions
  • 1/4 cup dry-roasted unsalted peanuts
  • 2/3 cup mayonaise
  • 4 Tablespoons Major Grey's chutney
  • 1 T. lemon juice
  • 2 tsp. curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • Grated peel of 1/2 lemon

Instructions

  1. 1.Combine chicken, pineapple, celery, scallions and peanuts in a bowl and mix well.
  2. 2.Stir in a mixture of the mayo, chutney, lemon juice, curry powder, salt and lemon peel.
  3. 3.Store, covered in the refrigerator until serving time.
  4. 4.Serves 4
  5. 5.Now....I add macaroni to the salad AND increase the dressing by 2-3 times...depending on how much you make. You just have to keep tasting it, till you like the taste. I usually add the peanuts last so they don't get too soggy. If it sits long, it tends to dry out, so you'll have to add more mayo at the last minute.

Notes

Mentions Shehrazad and Shano wanting the recipe for a shower.
