CHICKEN SALAD WITH CREAMY CURRY DRESSING
Tangy, but creamy, and great for summer entertaining. I prefer to steam or gently boil the chicken myself (rather than buy a cooked chicken) in a way that keeps them moist and tender - ThatBobbieGirl's recipe # 33104 looks just the thing for this! (Free plug, ThatBobbieGirl!)

Steps:
- Make the honey curry dressing: In a bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt, curry powder, honey, garlic powder. Then, mix in the freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust if needed - for more sweetness, add more honey. For more acidity, squeeze a little bit more lemon juice.
- In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken, celery, cashews, raisins, pistachios, scallions, and Italian parsley along with the prepared honey curry dressing. Season with more salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve and enjoy! I love serving it over a bed of mixed greens. You can also make sandwiches or wraps.
