Chicken Salad

Ingredients

• 4 cups minced cooked chicken
• 1 cup minced celery
• 1/4 cup minced onion
• 1/4 cup minced pecans
• 1/4 cup minced cucumber
• 2 tablespoons mango chutney
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons hot Madras curry powder
• Salt and pepper

Directions

Mix together the chicken, celery, onion, pecans and cucumber in a medium-sized bowl. Place all the remaining ingredients in a small bowl and stir until the curry powder is mixed through and the mixture becomes a mustardy yellow hue. Add the mayonnaise mixture by tablespoons to the chicken mixture. (The salad should not be too wet or too dry -- you may not need all of the mayonnaise mixture.) Adjust the seasonings, cover with plastic wrap, and chill for at least 1 hour. Serve chilled on a bed of lettuce or mounded in a hollowed-out pineapple half.
