Pretty good base recipe. I omitted salt since canned chicken is already salty to me. Also omitted chili oil. I'm sure fresh cooked chicken would make this fit for guests but as it was I appreciated being able to whip it up fast with pantry staples and no cooking. I added some raisins (wish I'd had graped, I would have added split grapes instead). Served it on sandwich rolls with some very crisp lettuce for texture and freshness.

Was trying to figure out what I could throw together without going to the store and did the trick! I doubled the recipe, added celery and cashews and it was great. Had enough for a few days for lunch!

Yummy! I used Miracle Whip instead of mayonnaise, no chili oil, and added 1 tsp chopped dried onion, 1/4 tsp celery seed, a handful of chopped almonds, and a handful of dried cranberries.

The only way I have ever made chicken salad. I do not use canned chicken, though. I also love to add a sweet, tart element (Granny Smith apples, dried cherries, green grapes...). Pretty served on split croissants.

I used a rotisserie chicken and skipped the chili oil because I didn't have it. Not bad at all.

This was very very good, I cooked my own chicken, toasted some walnuts and put some grapes in there, and i didn't have any chili oil to add but... it was delicious anyway!

I omitted the chilli oil simply because I didn't have it in the house. I ate these with saltine crackers and glass of milk. very very good if you love curry and it's not spicy so you can get the kids to try it at least.

Simiplicity is the strong point for this dish! Good on sourdough rounds for a lunch sammy---good straight out of the bowl at O-Dark-Thirty! Had thought about adding halved small grapes for sweet, or a bit of minced scallions for savory! Thanks!
