Instructions

In a medium mixing bowl, stir together yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, curry powder, honey, salt, pepper and fresh herbs.
Add chicken, onion, celery, and raisins and/or cashews, if using. Stir together to coat evenly with the dressing.
Serve on toasted bread, in a lettuce wrap, or just straight-up out of the bowl.

Notes

You can use 1 cup of mayo in place of the yogurt-olive oil combo, if desired.
This recipe works great with chickpeas in place of chicken if you’re looking for a plant-based option!
