Summer Delight: Curry Chicken Salad
"This is easy to make and a nice change from regular chicken salads. I am not a big curry fan, so you can use more according to taste. The currants add a nice touch. Perfect on a hot summer night with lemon sorbet frozen in whole lemon shells. Enjoy"

Excellent idea, prepares fast, gone in a flash. Halved for 2 of us, used red onion instead of scallions, and added 1/2 red pepper and a celery stalk, diced. Skipped the lettuce bed and served with pappadams, would taste great as a wrap also. Next time! Love the currants.

I am a retired healthcare executive. My career was in Seattle and we are now on the other side of the state enjoying the four seasons. We do miss Seattle and the more moderate climate, but we don't miss the traffic and cost of living. Of course, our 5 feet of snow last winter made us (momentarily) quesiton our decision to move.
I love collecting recipies and cooking "comfort food" on these cold winter days.
I've been a zaar member since it started. I miss Troy and Gay, but love the site and the friends I have made on zaar.
