Chicken Salad with Cucumber, Red Pepper, and Honey-Mustard Dressing
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (from about 1 lime)
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons honey mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 cups diced cooked chicken
- 1 cucumber, peeled, halved lengthwise, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch dice
- 2 tablespoons minced red onion
- 1 large mango, peeled and sliced (optional)
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon, chives, or basil
- 1/2 pound mixed salad greens (about 4 quarts)
- In a large bowl, whisk together lime juice, mayonnaise, honey mustard, salt, and black pepper. Slowly add olive oil while whisking.
- In a separate bowl, toss chicken, cucumber, bell pepper, onion, mango (if using), and tarragon with half of the dressing.
- Toss the mixed salad greens with the remaining dressing.
- Place the dressed greens on plates and top with the chicken salad mixture.
- Look for a ripe mango with yellow and red skin that yields to gentle pressure.
- If your mango is underripe, you can ripen it by placing it in a paper bag at room temperature.
- Ripe mangoes can be refrigerated for a couple of days before using.
