1/3 cup plain nonfat yogurt

Cook beans in pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Rinse under cold water. Drain well. Transfer beans to large bowl. Add chicken, onion and 4 tablespoons cilantro.

Stir curry powder in small skillet over medium heat until aromatic, about 30 seconds. (Much longer and you will cough!) Transfer to small bowl. Whisk in yogurt, mayonnaise and lime juice. Add dressing to chicken mixture; toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with almonds and remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro. Cover and chill or serve immediately.
