MIMI'S CURRIED HAWAIIAN CHICKEN SALAD

Mimi's Curried Hawaiian Chicken Salad image

My mother Joyce, who my children call 'Mimi,' is a great Southern cook and has many legendary recipes. This is one of her crowd pleasers. She's been making this very traditional 'lady-like' chicken salad for as long as I can remember. It's best the day after making, and is colorful and fragrant and perfect for a summer supper -- or a ladies' luncheon!

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
3 cups mayonnaise
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 ½ cups slivered almonds, toasted
1 pound seedless green grapes, halved
2 cups chopped celery
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, thoroughly drained
paprika, for garnish

Steps:

Place chicken in a large pot of lightly salted water, and bring to a boil; simmer until tender and cooked through, about 25 minutes. Drain, set aside. When cool enough to handle, chop coarsely, and place into a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, stir together mayonnaise, curry powder, lemon juice, and soy sauce.
Stir into the chopped chicken 2 1/4 cups of the toasted almonds. Stir in grapes, celery, water chestnuts, and pineapple. Gently fold in all but 1/2 cup of the dressing. Cover, and refrigerate salad and reserved dressing for several hours (or overnight).
Before serving, adjust dressing to taste, and garnish with paprika and remaining 1/4 cup almonds.

MIMI'S "BARBECUE" (SLOPPY JOES)

Mimi's

This is my grandmothers recipe and where we're from we call it barbecue, but most other people know them as sloppy joes. This are way better than your run of the mill canned stuff.
