CORONATION CHICKEN SALAD



Coronation Chicken Salad image

Back in 1953, long before the Los Angeles chef Roy Choi started making Korean tacos, a different kind of cross-cultural mash-up was minted in England as a way to celebrate the crowning of Queen Elizabeth II. Coronation Chicken, a dish with Indian flavors, has since "become a staple in the U.K.," said Nicky Perry, whose almost-a-quarter-century-old West Village shrine to British food, Tea & Sympathy, serves it as the filling for one of the restaurant's signature sandwiches. "There is such a huge Indian population in the U.K. that the two cuisines have become somewhat intertwined." By now it is a mainstay of the American picnic basket, too, and its undercurrents of sweetness (from apricots and mango chutney) and spice (from curry powder) are easy to achieve. Use soft bread, so that the chicken salad doesn't go squirting out the sides with each bite. And cutting off the crusts? Go right ahead. There is no shame in that.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 to 4 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts
1 tablespoon olive oil
Kosher salt, as needed
Fresh black pepper, as needed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large yellow onion, diced
1/2 cup red wine
6 tablespoons mango chutney
1/4 cup tomato purée
3 tablespoons curry powder
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 fresh or dried bay leaf
1 cup mayonnaise
3 ounces dried apricots, finely chopped (about 15 apricots)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Rub chicken on all sides with olive oil, season generously with salt and pepper and arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until skin is golden and meat is cooked through, about 45 minutes. Let chicken cool slightly, then remove skin and bones and chop meat into bite-size pieces. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the red wine, mango chutney, tomato purée, curry powder, lemon juice and bay leaf and bring to a simmer. Continue simmering, stirring occasionally and adjusting heat as necessary, until sauce is quite thick, 8 to 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper; remove and discard bay leaf.
  • Transfer sauce to a large bowl and let cool to room temperature, then add the mayonnaise and stir to combine. Add the cooled chicken and the apricots and stir to coat them in the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper. For sandwiches, spread the chicken salad on thick slices of English white bread or seven-grain bread. Cut off crusts if making finger sandwiches for tea.

Almond-Crusted Curry Chicken Salad Tea Sandwiches image

Blanched almonds add a delicious crunch to elegant tea sandwiches filled with flavorful curried chicken.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers     Finger Food Recipes

Yield Makes 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup toasted sliced blanched almonds
1 whole skinless and boneless chicken breast (about 10 ounces)
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 small onion, unpeeled and quartered
4 whole black peppercorns
5 cups water
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 tablespoons mango chutney
3/4 teaspoon white-wine vinegar
3 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut, toasted
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
24 thin slices white bread

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds on a baking sheet, and toast until fragrant and golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool, and gently crush. Set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine chicken, salt, onion, peppercorns, and the water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate to cool; reserve stock for another use.
  • When chicken is cool enough to handle, shred the meat and chop into small pieces. Return to plate; cover, and place in refrigerator until ready to use.
  • In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, curry powder, chutney, vinegar, and toasted coconut; stir to combine. Reserve 1/2 cup curry mayonnaise, and stir remaining mayonnaise into chicken. Thinly spread butter on two slices of bread; cover one slice with a thin layer of chicken salad, and top with other bread slice. Set aside. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
  • Stack several sandwiches; use a serrated knife to trim crusts and cut into two rectangles. Arrange sandwiches in a single row on the serving tray; they should rest on one long edge with the short ends standing upright. Spread a dab of reserved curry mayonnaise on short ends, and gently pat on almonds. Serve immediately. (Do not cover with damp paper towels or the almonds will become soft.)
