Greek Yogurt Curry Chicken Salad
Description
This recipe combines plain Greek yogurt with lime juice, curry powder, salt, and black pepper to create a tangy and mildly spiced dressing. Shredded rotisserie or cooked chicken is combined with sliced green onions for freshness, slivered almonds for crunch, halved grapes for sweetness, chopped celery for crispness, and optional raisins for additional sweetness and texture. The ingredients are mixed thoroughly to coat all components evenly.
The salad can be served in sandwiches, on fresh salad greens, or alongside pita chips and chopped vegetables, offering versatility in presentation. The combination balances creamy, tart, spicy, and sweet elements, with varied textures from soft chicken and creamy yogurt against crunchy almonds and celery.
It keeps well refrigerated for up to three days, making it practical for meal prep or packed lunches.
