Coconut-Lime Chicken Salad

Submitted by rusted_essence

"I found this recipe online somewhere and altered it to what i had and thought would taste good. The original recipe calls for snow peas, but i did not have any. After tasting the dressing I thought grapes would complement the flavor nicely and did they ever! This sort of tastes like a pina colada dressing with very tender chicken."
