Grilled Tandoori Chicken Salad


(1 meal sized portion)


This salad was so tasty, I will grill extra chicken the next time! It's always wonderful when leftovers are as delicious as these were. I didn't have any jalapeno peppers handy, but I imagine they would have been absolutely terrific here. This summery salad turned into an amazing lunch for me.

1 cup leftover grilled tandoori chicken, cut up
1/2 cup mango, diced
1/4 cup red or orange bell pepper, diced
2 tbsp red onion, diced
2 tbsp celery, diced
1-2 tbsp cilantro, chopped
2 tbsp plain yogurt
1 tbsp mayonnaise
1/4 tsp curry powder
1/4 tsp cardamon
freshly grated black pepper
salt, to taste

Place the chicken, mango, bell pepper, red onion, celery and cilantro into a bowl.


Combine the yogurt, mayonnaise, curry powder, cardamom and pepper in another small bowl. Pour over the chicken mixture and toss until everything is evenly combined. Add salt, if needed.

  2. I love recreating leftovers. There is a certain fulfillment when you have done something to save what should have been wasted otherwise. This looks like a real treat for the family. Yummy indeed!
