The first time that I ever had Coronation Chicken was at a sandwich shop on Cornmarket St. I've always been a fan of chicken salad, and this added in another ingredient that I adore: curry. I've been wanting to make it for a while, but the recipe from The Hairy Bikers almost put me off. Then I found a recipe for 'Easy Coronation Chicken.' It hits the spot and has already proved a hit on this side of the Atlantic: (Also, it's orange-looking chicken salad... so I'm giving you a picture of HMTQ instead.)
Ingredients
- 100g (4 oz) mayonnaise
- 75g (3 oz) apricot chutney or preserves
- 1 teaspoon curry powder (or more if you like it as much as I do)
- 1 dessertspoon lime zest
- 4 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 500g (1 1/4 lb) skinless, boneless chicken breast fillets - cooked and diced
- some chopped coriander/cilantro
Preparation
Simple: put it in a bowl and mix it all together. Done. Serve it on some crusty white bread or a bed of lettuce.
