Turkey Salad in Mango Chutney Mayonnaise
Ingredients
The Mayonnaise
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
3 tablespoons chopped mango chutney
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon snipped fresh chives
Directions
The Salad
3 cups bite-sized or thinly sliced cooked turkey or chicken
3 tablespoons raisins or currants
1 cup red or green seedless grapes, cut in half
1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup slivered almonds
Assorted greens (watercress, red leaf lettuce, etc.)
1 ripe avocado, peeled and thinly sliced (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the mayonnaise: In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, chutney, lemon juice, and chives.
Prepare the salad: In a large bowl, mix the turkey, currants, and grapes. Gently fold in the mayonnaise. In a small skillet over moderate heat, melt the butter. Saute the almonds until lightly golden, about 4 minutes, stirring often so they don't burn, and drain on paper towels. Toss the almonds into the turkey salad. Place the greens on a serving plate. Put the turkey salad in the center and fan the avocado slices around it.
Yield: 4 servings
