Curried Chicken Salad With Mango

I made this many years ago. While my family are not big curry or mango fans this is a good salad. I got this recipe from Joan Lunden's Healthy Cooking.

• Ready In: 15 mins
• Serves: 4-6

Ingredients

• 4  cups  diced  cooked chicken breasts (procedure below)
• 2  tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 2  mangoes (or a combination of the two) or 2  papayas, peeled, pitted, and cut into 1-inch pieces (or a combination of the two)
• 2  celery ribs, chopped
• 4  scallions, sliced thin (use the white part and some of the green part)
• 1⁄4 cup nonfat plain yogurt
• 1⁄4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons curry powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cumin
•  salt and pepper
•  lettuce, for lining the plates
• 2  tablespoons  chopped cashews (optional)
• 2  boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
•  water or  chicken broth, to cover

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, lime juice, mangoes, celery, and scallions.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise, spices, and salt and pepper to taste. Add to the chicken mixture, and toss. Arrange a mound of chicken on top of the lettuce. Garnish each portion with 2 teaspoons of the chopped cashews, if using.

4. In a saucepan, combine the chicken breast halves with enough water to cover. Remove the chicken from the water and bring the water to a boil. Return the chicken to the pan, and simmer it gently for 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and let it stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Check the chicken to make sure it is cooked through. If it is not, simmer it an additional 2 minutes.
