Step 1: If using raw chicken, cook it by boiling, poaching, or roasting until fully cooked. Let it cool completely, then dice or shred.

Step 2: In a large bowl, add cooked chicken, raisins, toasted almonds, and chopped celery.

Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, yogurt, curry powder, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4: Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and gently fold until evenly coated.

Step 5: Taste and adjust seasoning. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes before serving.
