Description

Regal coronation chicken elevates classic British comfort food with a creamy, spiced sauce that honors royal culinary tradition. Elegant flavors blend perfectly, creating a delightful sandwich or salad topping you’ll savor with pure British sophistication.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Protein:

  • 500 grams (17.6 ounces) shredded cooked chicken

Spices and Seasonings:

  • 23 teaspoons mild curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons mango chutney

Binding Ingredients:

  • 6 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 13 tablespoons sultanas

Instructions

  1. Whisk together creamy mayonnaise, aromatic curry powder, warm cinnamon, sweet mango chutney, and chewy sultanas in a spacious mixing vessel.
  2. Gently fold shredded roasted chicken into the vibrant sauce, ensuring each morsel is lavishly coated with the fragrant mixture.
  3. If the consistency appears too dense, delicately incorporate small amounts of water to achieve a silky, spreadable texture.
  4. Sample the coronation chicken and calibrate seasoning with salt and pepper, allowing the complex flavors to harmonize.
  5. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to enhance flavor melding and develop a more sophisticated taste profile.
  6. Present the chilled chicken salad alongside crisp green salad, crusty artisan bread, or fluffy jacket potatoes for a quintessentially British culinary experience.

Notes

  • Test curry powder’s freshness before adding to ensure vibrant flavor and prevent staleness.
  • Balance sweetness by choosing a mango chutney with moderate sugar content for a more complex taste profile.
  • Consider reducing mayonnaise for lighter version or substituting Greek yogurt for healthier alternative.
  • Experiment with adding toasted almond slivers or chopped cashews for extra crunch and nutty dimension.
