Really tasty combo of flavours! Grapes were crazy expensive at the store so I subbed dried cranberries which worked well. Thanks for a great lunch recipe to add to the roster!

This curry chicken salad recipe looks so tasty! I love the mix of sweet grapes and savory flavors. The Greek yogurt curry sauce sounds delicious, and I appreciate the different ways to serve it.

Just made this. My favorite chicken salad recipe! I omitted the grapes and used sliced toasted almonds in place of the cashews. I must love spice because I doubled the curry, but then added extra ginger. I’ve been reading a lot of comments about the lemon juice, but in my opinion, it needs it to (to taste) brighten the salad up and balance the spice profile.

About how many cups of chicken salad does this recipe yield?

In reply to Tracie. Awesome. I just made it with chick peas. It was lovely. If you make the recipe with chick peas, double the ounces called for when replacing the chicken with chick peas. I used toasted pecans instead of cashews. I used mint in place of cilantro. I did use the garam masala as called for as well as the turmeric. I felt the garam masala added more bitterness than desired so I bumped up the honey a little bit. We went less on the lemon juice but honestly, I think it needed it. Some critiques of the recipe claimed the amount of lemon juice wasn’t necessary - my guess is their yogurt may have been more tart than mine. Definitely use Greek yogurt for a good thickness for the sauce. Very light and tasty recipe and perfect for this summer heat!

In reply to Sarah Paredes. Sarah, the best Greek yogurt I've found (and the only one I buy) is Fage. Besides the brand, if you get the full fat, you'll have the best flavor. Two percent isn't bad, but the full fat can be used in place of sour cream. For any of the reduced fat versions, to use as a sub for sour cream you have to add a little sugar. Hope this helps.

This salad sounds absolutely wonderful, and like something I would definitely want to make. Having never experienced Trader Joe’s chicken curry salad (our nearest TJ’s is 550 miles away…) I would modify the recipe by adding grape tomatoes in place of the red grapes. That fits my diet better, and adds more veggies, which is a good thing. Thank you for inspiring me.

Great Recipe, I used smoked chichen breasts (60 mins at 225 degrees on the charcoal grill) subbed toasted pistachios for the cashews, did not use cilantro as I did not have any but will try the cilantro next time and added extra cayenne pepper. Very good thank you for the recipe!

Those dang Costco chickens are so huge and I always pluck off the legs. So used your recipe to use up those “big breasts!”. I couldn’t find my garam masala so just used good heaping of my Japanese curry powder and bit of cinnamon, coriander and cayenne for lunch. Used walnuts. Perfectly delicious. Rest of the chicken goes to my pup. Thanks for the easy tasty recipe.
