Mango Chicken Salad

This recipe is adapted from a Cooking Light recipe. I believe the first time I made it was in one of my college cooking classes, still good after all these years!

Ingredients

3 1/4 cups chopped ready-to-eat roasted skinned, boned chicken breasts

1/2 cup diced peeled mango

1/2 cup sliced celery

1/4 cup sliced green onions

1 tablespoon hot mango chutney

1 tablespoon light mayonnaise

1 tablespoon low-fat sour cream

2 teaspoons lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger

1/4 teaspoon pepper
 
Directions
 
Combine the first 4 ingredients in a large bowl. Combine chutney and next 6 ingredients (chutney through pepper) in a small bowl, and stir chutney mixture into chicken mixture. Serve in whole wheat pita for a delicious sandwich!
