In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, curry powder, and honey until smooth.
Add the diced chicken to the bowl and toss it in the curry-mayo mix, ensuring it’s well coated.
Mix in the cashews, raisins, green onions, and grated carrots. Season with salt and pepper, adjusting to your preference.
Chill the salad in the fridge for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Alternatively, you can serve it immediately on a bed of fresh lettuce or sandwiched between slices of your favorite bread.

Notes

To ensure the flavors truly shine, opt for a good quality curry powder; it can make a world of difference. This salad loves to be paired with a crispy baguette or toasted pita pockets. For those aiming for a low-carb alternative, lettuce wraps are the way to go. If you’re looking to elevate the meal, a side of fruit salad or a tangy iced tea complements the rich flavors of the curried chicken salad. Remember, this dish is versatile, so feel free to add in or swap out ingredients as your pantry and preferences allow!
