CURRY CHICKEN WITH GRAPES

     CHICKEN-CURRY3 - Chicken fruit salad curry

     One day I was invited to a beach picnic, and asked to bring
     a salad. A friend and I got together in his kitchen and con-
     cocted a curried chicken salad with grapes. It was deli-
     cious, but we forgot to write down the recipe.  After some
     more experimentation, I have come up with this recipe. I
     don't know if it is the same as what we made that day at the
     beach, but it is similar and delicious.

INGREDIENTS (Serves 8-10)
     6-8       boneless chicken breast pieces (3-4 chicken
               breasts, halved and boned)
     2-6 cups  seedless grapes (vary amount to taste)
     1 1/2     " cups"
     2 cups    mayonaise
     4 tsp     curry powder
     3 tsp     olive oil
     1 tsp     cayenne pepper
     1/2 tsp   ground black pepper
     1 tsp     fruit vinegar

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Make the sauce by mixing together all ingredients
               except the chicken and the grapes. Season to taste
               (sample by dipping a grape into the sauce and then
               eating it).

          (2)  Broil the chicken breasts (3-5 minutes on each
               side in a preheated broiler), then dice or shred
               into small bite-sized pieces.

          (3)  Cook the pasta according to package directions,
               and drain.

          (4)  Mix chopped chicken with 2 cups of whole grapes.
               Add the cooked drained pasta. Cover with the
               sauce. Mix well.  Add more grapes to taste. My
               taste is to add vast quantities of grapes.

RATING
     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 25 minutes including cooking the
     chicken and pasta.  Precision: no need to measure.
