      1/2  teaspoon      curry powder
      1/4  teaspoon      sugar
      1/4  teaspoon      salt
    1      clove         garlic -- minced
    2      tablespoons   lemon juice
      1/2  cup           safflower oil
    2      heads         boston lettuce
    1      large         navel oranges
    1      small         red onion -- sliced very thinly
      1/4  cup           cilantro -- chopped
    1      medium        avocado -- chopped
 
 Combine the mustard, curry powder, sugar, salt and garlic in a small bowl. Blen
 d in the lemon juice. Use a small whisk to gradually beat in the oil. Set the d
 ressing aside.
 Clean (remove the pith) and section the orange.
 
 This is a wonderful salad especially when topped with grilled chicken which has
  been marinated in plain yogurt, curry powder, corriander, ginger, garlic, onio
 n powder and white pepper.
 I kind of make this by the seat of my pants. So anything goes. After marinating
  it for a few hours to overnight I grill the chicken and serve at room temperat
 ure over the salad. I don't see any reason why you could use a ready cooked chi
 cken for a really quick dinner.
