Kitchen Haiku: Curried Chicken Celery Apple Salad

As I mentioned in my previous post, An Introduction to Kitchen Haiku, I am currently in a phase that challenges my culinary wherewithal, because I have to stay within a very narrow scope of quantity and selection.

One of my favorites in this phase is the Curried Chicken Celery Apple Salad.  It is a simple recipe, which yields a fantastically satisfying meal.  Crunchy, sweet, and with the bold flavors from your favorite curry powder, this one will remain a favorite, even when I am no longer in kitchen haiku phase.

3 oz cooked chicken, diced
2-3 stalks celery, diced
1 medium apple, diced

Make a vinaigrette with:
1 tablespoon vinegar (apple cider vinegar works very well in this)
1 tablespoon water or chicken broth
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon curry powder

Toss it all together and serve.

This salad travels very well, it is perfect for bringing to work, or when on the road.

Enjoy!
