Adapted via Ellie Krieger
Serves: 4

Ingredients:
♦ 1 1/4 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast halves, no more than 3/4-inch thick
♦ 1/4 cup sliced almonds
♦ 1/2 cup nonfat plain yogurt
♦ 1 tbsp mayonnaise
♦ 1 tsp curry powde
♦ 1 tsp lemon juicer
♦ 1 cup halved red grapes
♦ 1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves
♦ salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees – season chicken, and place on a baking sheet. Cook 30 minutes, or until cooked through. Cut into 1/4-inch dice, and allow to cool completely – move to refrigerator once cooled. Toast the almonds in a small dry skillet over medium-high heat until fragrant and beginning to turn golden, 2 to 3 minutes.

In a large bowl, stir together the yogurt, mayonnaise, curry powder and lemon juice. Fold in the chicken, grapes and cilantro and season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
