Curry Chicken salad
I like a chicken salad for lunch, and I've got several chicken salad recipes I can choose from. If you go for easy, you run to the supermarket and buy a bowl of chicken curry salad with a little bit of curried chicken, some pineapple and apple, and a lot of sauce. But if you want easy, good, tasty food, you can make this chicken curry salad yourself. Because this recipe is so easy, with only ten readily available ingredients and quick preparation, the trip to the store almost takes longer.
And the full creamy taste of the slightly sweet curry flavor sauce, which coats every bit of chicken, is a delicious surprise. This bowl is always empty afterward, whether you eat it on a sandwich as a meal for lunch or as a spread at a party. This curried chicken salad is so delicious that I always come up short (and often make a lot extra). Yes, this is one of the best salad sandwich recipes I know.

What do you need for a creamy salad with curry and chicken sandwich
For the preparation of this curry chicken salad, you need the following ingredients (you can find the correct amounts in the recipe card at the bottom of the blog):
- Chicken: Use cooked chicken breasts as protein, which you poach in stock (to give it even more flavor). Chicken breast or chicken tenderloin lends itself well to this. Or use chicken leftovers. Make cubed or shredded chicken.
- Mayonnaise and Sour cream:Â Make the sauce rich and creamy.
- Lemon Juice:Â Use Fresh Juice!
- Ginger Syrup: For a hint of sweetness and a touch of ginger. Because ginger is one of the best flavor combinations with curry.
- Spices: Nothing special. Nothing special. You probably already have curry powder, turmeric, garlic, pepper, and salt in your kitchen cupboard.
How to make Curry-Chicken Salad
A recipe with extensive steps and the right amount of ingredients, which you can also easily print, can be found at the bottom of the blog.
- Pulled Chicken:Â Place the chicken in the bowl and pull it apart with two forks. This way, you can distribute the chicken evenly in the salad.
- Basic sauce:Â Make the basic sauce by mixing the mayonnaise with Sour Cream. This is my favorite base for many sauces for a salad.
- Flavor:Â Season the sauce further by adding spices, ginger syrup, and lemon juice. In this case, curry powder, turmeric, a pinch of white pepper, garlic, and salt.
- Stirring:Â Mix everything well. I usually leave it in the fridge for another hour to blend the flavors. But you could (if your guests are waiting) serve it right away.
To serve!
- On a sandwich: Delicious on a croissant, baguette, or Italian bun. Even between two slices of bread, it instantly makes your lunch very, very special.
- Crackers, toast, or baguette: Great for any party. Serve some bowls of homemade salad, like this Chicken Curry Salad and Homemade Egg Salad.
