Start with the dressing, put all the dressing ingredients in the processor, mix well, taste for seasoning.

Coat the salad leaves in a little of the dressing, arrange the leaves on individual plates or in one large bowl. Add the sliced mango, grapes, nuts and chicken. Drizzle over the dressing and serve with some nice bread. Enjoy!
