THE CLASSIC 1953 CORONATION CHICKEN SALAD RECIPE



The Classic 1953 Coronation Chicken Salad Recipe image

This is my adaptation of the much loved and famous recipe created by Constance Spry for the Queen's Coronation lunch in 1953. I make this regularly for picnics and buffets; it is also amazing as a sandwich filler. In 1953, curry powder would have been used - but I find that curry paste works better. Use any type of poached or cooked chicken - I usually cook a couple of chicken breasts just for this recipe, however, a whole cooked chicken works very well; don't forget to remove the skin and check for bones first. This recipe is based on the Coronation Chicken recipe in: The Constance Spry Cookery Book by Constance Spry & Rosemary Hulme (1956).

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.

CORONATION CHICKEN SALAD WITH MANGOES AND ALMONDS



Coronation Chicken Salad With Mangoes and Almonds image

This sweet-tangy curried chicken salad, tossed with mango and crunchy toasted almonds, was invented to honor the crowning of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953, and served at her coronation luncheon. While chef Tom Aikens follows the original recipe closely, he brightens the dressing with minced hot chiles and chunks of sweet mango. A tad labor-intensive but I think it is worth the effort - have seen the other Coronation Salads and none is like this take on it. F&W Magazine.

Time 55m

Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1 1/2 to 1 3/4 pounds)
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 medium white onion, diced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon curry powder
1/4 cup red wine
2 tablespoons mango chutney
Juice of 1/2 lemon (about 1 tablespoon)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup chopped dried apricots (about the size of a raisin)
1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Begin by poaching the chicken. Season the chicken generously on both sides with salt, then place in a single layer in a large pot. Add the peppercorns and 1 of the bay leaves. Pour cool water over the chicken until it is covered by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the poaching liquid and place on a plate to cool. Shred the chicken, by hand, into large pieces and set aside in a medium bowl.
  • Cool the poaching liquid completely, then refrigerate in an airtight container and reserve for another use (see Cook's Note).
  • For the sauce, heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until slightly darker in color, about 1 minute. Add the curry powder and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in the red wine, 1/4 cup water, mango chutney, lemon juice and remaining bay leaf and cook until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Remove bay leaf.
  • Combine the mayonnaise and sour cream in a medium bowl using a rubber spatulate. Add the cooled curry mixture and 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir to combine.
  • To finish the salad, mix the shredded chicken with the dried apricots and sliced almonds. Pour the sauce over the chicken mixture and gently coat the chicken with the sauce using a rubber spatula. Finish the salad by gently mixing in the cilantro.
