The sweet and sour sauce is thick and flavourful, complementing the crunch of the grapes and the tender succulent chicken. Use red grapes to add colour and variety, but green and black grapes will work equally well. This dish is great eaten alone, but also makes an inventive addition to any buffet table, and even a perfect starter for an eastern themed dinner party.
If you’re looking for something a little different this festive season, why not make the dish with prawns rather than chicken for an exciting twist to the traditional prawn cocktail for Christmas dinner? This truly is a salad with a twist. Embrace the eastern vibe and try your hand at eating with chopsticks!
