“Easy recipe. I used prior grilled chicken and Nature's Promise pre-grilled chicken breast strips. The dressing was a nice balance of soft curry taste background which balanced the sweetness of the pineapple and red grapes. Since it is hard to find pineapple ” — a cook, 5.0★
“Hi I have made this in the past and love it, I have a question, I'm really pushed for time tomorrow so I was wondering if I could make the dressing tonight (1 night before) and then pour it on the other ingredients tomorrow an hour or 2 before serving?” — a cook, 5.0★
