Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon black peppercorns
  • 1 lemon, halved
  • 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
  • 1 whole chicken breast (bone-in, about 1 1/2 pounds)
  • 1 small ripe mango, peeled
  • 1 small ripe papaya, peeled
  • 1 bunch of watercress (12 ounces) cleaned and stemmed
  • Salt and pepper

For the Curry Mayonnaise:

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 tablespoon finely minced shallots
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 2 slices of lime-garnish
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro

Directions

In a small sauce pan, combine wine, salt, peppercorns, juice of 1/2 lemon and coriander seeds. Add the chicken breast and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, make the dressing. In a bowl combine mayonnaise, sour cream, curry powder, shallots, honey, vinegar, lime juice, and season with salt and pepper. Slice the papaya and mango into wedges and squeeze the juice from the remaining lemon half. In a small bowl toss watercress with just enough dressing to coat the greens. Divide onto two entree plates. Arrange the papaya and mango on top of the greens and around the border of both plates. Remove chicken from the liquid and pat dry. Remove each breast from the bone and slice into 6 slices. Toss chicken with 2 tablespoons of dressing. Arrange atop the greens. Garnish with lime slices and chopped cilantro. Drizzle with additional dressing

    The watercress is a lot of work if you buy it fresh, and there is too much used for 2 entrees. It makes the entire dish very bitter.

    Emeril is a perfectionist so I don't have to be. Every ingredient in this recipe was in perfect proportions. Often, chicken salad is flavorless. My taste buds were satisfied with every bite. Amazing. The fruit and the greens were a pleasant surprise. The peppercorns and the shallots gave it 'kick'. The honey, lemon and lime juice, CORIANDER!!! The man is an artist! He is the best for a darn good reason. Enjoy!

    This salad is delectable. Sweet fruit mixed in with the creamy curry flavor and tender chicken. This is a wonderful combo. It did take me longer to put together than the 10 minute prep time, but worth the effort.
