I've gone straight pescatarian so I no longer partake in meat with legs (RIP bacon, I loved you well), however, I still make the love of my life meaty foods and yes, for a "salad spread" this is meal is still MEATY!
You will need:
- rotisserie chicken
- celery seed
- grapes
- sweet onion
- celery
- almond slivers
- mayonnaise
- mango chutney
Start with a rotisserie chicken, store bought, but if you have the time and desire to make one, more power to you. I strip the meat off the bones and put it into a large bowl. Sprinkle celery seed over the chicken (about a small palm full).
Wash grapes and slice in half. As many as you wish, I prefer about 3 handfuls of grapes.
Below are two videos showing variations of ways to easily cut your grapes.
Chop up a stick of celery. Add to the mixture.
Add 1/2 cup sliced almonds to mixture.
In a small bowl mix together a cup and a half cup mayonnaise and mango chutney (to taste) I start with a tablespoon and taste test from there.
I had a hard time finding Chutney in the grocery store in my new town. I ended up finding it with the spices, in my old store I could find it in the aisle with the jams and jellies.
Once you have your sauce mix blended and perfect for your taste, mix it in with the rest of your chicken spread.
Although it's tasty on it's own or on bread, I prefer to serve my chicken salad spread on a croissant.
