Curry chicken with grapes

8 servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
8Chicken breast halves (boned)
6cupsGrapes, seedless (or less; vary amount to taste)
2cupsMayonnaise
4teaspoonsCurry powder
3teaspoonsOlive oil
1teaspoonCayenne pepper
½teaspoonBlack pepper, ground
1teaspoonFruit vinegar

Directions

Make the sauce by mixing together all ingredients except the chicken and the grapes. Season to taste (sample by dipping a grape into the sauce and then eating it).

Broil the chicken breasts (3-5 minutes on each side in a preheated broiler), then dice or shred into small bite-sized pieces.

Mix chopped chicken with about 2 cups of whole grapes. Cover with the sauce. Add more grapes to taste. My taste is to add vast quantities of grapes.

NOTES:

* Chicken fruit salad curry -- One day I was invited to a beach picnic, and asked to bring a salad. A friend and I got together in his kitchen and concocted a curried chicken salad with grapes. It was delicious, but we forgot to write down the recipe. After some more experimentation, I have come up with this recipe. I don't know if it is the same as what we made that day at the beach, but it is delicious.

: Difficulty: easy.

: Time: 20 minutes including cooking the chicken.

: Precision: no need to measure.
