How to Make Wedding Shower Chicken Salad

In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise and 1 teaspoon curry powder. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed (add more curry for a spicier kick!).
Gently fold in 2 cups cooked chicken, 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/4 cup chopped red onion, and 1/4 cup chopped grapes. Mix until just combined.
Allow the salad to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is optional but recommended.
Before serving, sprinkle with 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans. Serve chilled on a bed of crisp lettuce leaves.
