  • 2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, (from 1 lemon)

Method

  1. Make the chicken salad. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, celery, green onions, raisins, yogurt, lemon juice, honey, cayenne, curry powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until fully combined. If the mixture seems too dry, add more yogurt 1 tablespoon at a time. Set aside.
