Ginger Curry Chicken Salad

I find by cooking the chicken in cube size (to then be diced afterwards) in the broth and seasoning concoction gives a subtle flavor to the chicken without overwhelming the palate.

Once assembled you can add more curry and Reva’s seasoning mix to taste.

You can also use salted- roasted pistachios if you prefer a saltier dish.  

The mixture, without the apples, when puréed into a thicker paste may be used as a spread. Use thinly sliced apples on the top to serve open-face on a crust less bread, biscuit or in a mini tart shell; a prefect addition to any afternoon tea menu.
