Used a hot curry powder which gave it a little extra kick--was delicious!

I don't typically love mayo based dishes, especially chicken salad but since I love the flavor of curry I thought I would give this a try. I thought it was delicious! I use rotisserie chicken for a shortcut so it's fast and easy.

This recipe is yummy! It cures my curry craving. I made it for the second time tonight--doubled the curry, added cayenne, used walnuts instead of cashews and raisins instead of apricots... Mostly because I was out of the other items--it's great both ways. Love it!

I think this would be really good without the curry, or maybe less curry.
