Good recipe, this is a lot of fun to try some different variations. I used lemon juice instead of vinegar, shallot instead on onion and mint instead of parsley.

I have never made something so simple that had so many people raving! I've had to email this to 2 people and counting. Thanks!

I made this for my lunch today when another recipe I'd planned to make fell through. I looked through all the Zaar chicken salad recipes I could find to locate one that used ingredients I had already. :) The salad is pretty good, but I must admit that the curry dressing is a little stronger than I'd like. I added some sliced black olives to offset the dressing, and that did the trick. :) Thanks for sharing the recipe, Helping Hands!
