Good salad - very easy. I didn't have any mango nectar so I just used some tropical fruit juice that I had (100% juice). With the juice the dressing was a little runny and could have used more zing, but otherwise it had good flavor. I will add a little more vinegar next time and will try to find the nectar. I also added sugared almonds, but I think pecans would be even better. I marinated the chicken with a 30 minute marinades (store bought) rather than the broth. I will make this again.

Since discovering this site, I have been cooking much more and have found some incredible recipes. I absolutely love to cook and try out new recipes, but have a handful of family favorites that I make quite often. My husband loves to cook as much as I do. To avoid anyone monopolizing the kitchen, we have to designate who gets to cook dinner in advance. He specializes in Asian cuisine and I love trying new healthy recipes.
