CURRIED CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the chicken breasts on a sheet pan and rub the skin with olive oil. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is just cooked. Set aside until cool enough to handle. Remove the meat from the bones, discard the skin, and dice the chicken into large bite-size pieces.
• For the dressing, combine the mayonnaise, wine, chutney, curry powder, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process until smooth.
• Combine the chicken with enough dressing to moisten well. Add the celery, scallions, and raisins, and mix well. Refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Add the cashews and serve at room temperature.

BROILED CHICKEN BREAST SALAD WITH CURRY DRESSING

Steps:

• If chicken breasts are connected, separate halves and cut away membrane or fat. Place oil in mixing bowl with lemon juice, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper. Stir well. Add chicken pieces and turn them in the marinade to coat well. Cover and set aside until ready to cook. (If marinating for a long period, refrigerate them.)
• Preheat a charcoal grill or broiler.
• Put the chicken pieces on the grill or the broiler rack. Cover grill or close broiler. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, turning pieces. Continue cooking till done, about 3 to 5 minutes on the grill, possibly longer under the broiler.
• Remove pieces. Slice each breast on the bias about 1/4 inch thick.
• In a large mixing bowl add the radicchio, bibb lettuce and arugula. Toss well. Add half the warm dressing, and toss again. Place the sliced chicken over the salad and sprinkle with the remaining dressing and basil.

CHICKEN SALAD WITH CORN, QUINOA AND YOGURT DRESSING

Steps:

• In a large pot, combine the chicken breasts, corn cobs, 1/2 onion and 1/2 jalapeño. Cover with about 1 inch of water and season generously with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until the chicken is just cooked through (do not overcook!), 7 to 10 minutes. Skim most of the foam off the water; transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside to cool. Discard the corn cobs, onion and jalapeño; leave the water in the pot.
• While the chicken cooks, coarsely chop the remaining 1/2 onion and 1/2 jalapeño together. Sprinkle with salt, then chop and smash using the side of your knife until a juicy, coarse paste forms. (You can also do this with a mortar and pestle.) Transfer to a large bowl, along with the lime zest and juice.
• Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, use two forks to shred it.
• To the reserved water in the pot, add the quinoa, bring to a boil, and cook according to package instructions until the quinoa grows white tails and is tender but not mushy. Drain the quinoa, run it under cold water until cool to the touch, then shake it very dry.
• Add the quinoa, corn kernels, chicken and yogurt to the large bowl and stir to combine; season to taste with salt. Serve over lettuce leaves, if desired, and top with any garnishes, if using. The chicken-quinoa mixture keeps refrigerated for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature and adjust seasonings with salt and lime juice as needed, as flavors will shift from the chill of the fridge.
