A friend and I got together in his kitchen and concocted a curried chicken salad with grapes. It was delicious, 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. .IH "Serves 8\-10" .IG "6\-8" "boneless chicken breast pieces" (3\-4 chicken breasts, halved and boned) .IG "2\-6 cups" "seedless grapes" "300g\-1kg" (vary amount to taste) .IG "1\(12" cups" "sea shell pasta" "150 g" .IG "2 cups" "mayonaise" "500 ml" .IG "4 tsp" "curry powder" "20 ml" .IG "3 tsp" "olive oil" "15 ml" .IG "1 tsp" "cayenne pepper" "5 ml" .IG "\(12 tsp" "ground black pepper" "2.5 ml" .IG "1 tsp" "fruit vinegar" "5 ml" .PH .SK 1 Make the sauce by mixing together all ingredients except the chicken and the grapes.
