Ingredients

  • 2 cups diced or shredded cooked chicken rotisserie works great
  • ½ cups diced celery
  • ¼ cup sliced green onions
  • 1 ½ cups shredded or thinly sliced cabbage
  • ⅓ cup dried cranberries
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • ¼ cup toasted slivered almonds you can buy these pre-toasted, packaged in the produce section near the salad toppers
  • ¼ cup Major Grey's Mango Chutney
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoon cider vinegar
  • kosher salt
  • black pepper

Instructions

  • Combine chicken, celery, onions, cabbage, cranberries, cilantro, and almonds in a medium-sized bowl.
  • Whisk together the chutney, mayo, and cider vinegar in a small bowl. Add the dressing to the chicken mixture and gently combine.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste. For best results, chill at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Store finished, dressed salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator and enjoy within 3-4 days for best results.
  • Because this salad uses chopped cabbage, it has a longer table and fridge life than green salads and stays nice and crunchy.  It's one of my favorites to serve at parties, baby and wedding showers, and picnics.
  • Like all dressed salads, if it's going to be chilling or sitting a bit before serving, add the almonds in right before serving so they stay nice and crunchy. (Don't want nuts?  Leave them out!)
  • If serving as a main course, this salad will serve about 6. If serving in a potluck type setting, about 8.
