By now you might already know about my new obsession with this shallot and curry vinaigrette....if not you are about to. I think you either love curry or you don't. I happen to love it like I love garlic. So that means I love it a lot! I actually scored this vinaigrette recipe from my Fine Cooking Magazine, in their Cook Fresh edition. I made it with grilled chicken and couscous the first go around and loved it so much I had to make it again. Most of the time when I recipe test I have to tweek a thing or two before I post it to the blog...well not this grilled chicken, cantaloupe, and goat cheese spinach salad...it was perfection the first time, but I made it again just to make sure!
It's the perfect balance of textures and flavors that just scream summer salad. Not to mention the colors tell you this salad is good for you. It would be great as a lunch or served as dinner with some Naan bread.
There is something about the mild onion and curry flavor mixed with the grilled charred chicken, the sweet cantaloupe, and the creamy goat cheese! I love it and will be making it all summer long!
