Ingredients

1. 2 tablespoons lime juice (from about 1 lime)
2. 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
3. 2 teaspoons honey mustard
4. 1/2 teaspoon salt
5. 1/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
6. 1/2 cup olive oil
7. 2 cups diced cooked chicken
8. 1 cucumber, peeled, halved lengthwise, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
9. 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch dice
10. 2 tablespoons minced red onion
11. 1 large mango, peeled and sliced (optional)
12. 2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon, chives, or basil
13. 1/2 pound mixed salad greens (about 4 quarts)

Directions

1. In a large glass or stainless-steel bowl, whisk together the lime juice, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and black pepper. Add the oil slowly, whisking.
2. In a medium glass or stainless-steel bowl, toss the chicken, cucumber, bell pepper, onion, mango, and tarragon with half the dressing. Toss the greens into the remaining dressing. Put the greens on plates and top with the chicken salad.

Notes

The skin of a ripe mango is yellow and red, and its flesh yields to gentle pressure. If you purchase a mango that is underripe (green and firm), put it in a paper bag and keep it at room temperature to ripen. Once the mango is ripe, you can refrigerate it for a couple of days before using.
