Ingredients For Coronation Chicken Recipes
6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
⅓ cup sultana raisins
1 (1 pound) large mango, peeled, thinly sliced
⅔ cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon mild curry powder
1 tablespoon mango chutney
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper
¾ cup toasted cashews (Optional)
Instructions: Coronation Chicken Recipes
Step 1: Poach chicken in lightly salted boiling water until no longer pink and cooked through, 20 minutes. Drain, cool, and cut into 1/2-inch strips.
Step 2: Combine chicken strips, raisins, and 1/2 of the mango in a large bowl.
Step 3: Mix mayonnaise, curry powder, chutney, and lemon juice together in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper, then toss gently with chicken mixture. Stir in 1/2 of the cashews. Transfer to a platter, and garnish with remaining mango strips and cashews.
So Easy and Good, I did omit the raisins, will add next time!
I didn't have chutney so I used a citrus infused white balsamic vinegar. No nuts or raisins, but added finely diced celery and green onion, and 1 quart rough chopped iceberg lettuce. Everyone cleaned their plates. Perfect summer salad.
I did like it and it was easy to make. I won't make it again-but it was worth making on time. Thank you for the recipe!! :)
I used chicken cooked in Instant Pot with celery, onions, carrots, & thyme. I cook 6 big boneless, skinless breasts, & pull out 1/2 the chicken for this recipe. I use a can of chopped mango, drained, instead of the fresh mango. Saves a lot of time & effort! I add a little more mayonnaise & raisins to keep it from being so dry. Refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving, & we love it!
By far the best tasting chicken breast I have ever had! I am not a fan of curry powder, so don' t keep it on hand, but the recipe for homemade curry, included, has made me a believer! I had homemade mango chutney preserved, so used that, but in the absence of fresh mango, I used canned diced pears. AWESOME. Next time I will make sure to have fresh mango.
Everyone absolutely LOVED this! I added some halved red grapes and diced apple and substituted pecans and, since we really love curry, added more than the recipe required. I can't wait to make this again. If you can believe it, people were fighting over the leftovers and I wound up giving them all away so I had none for myself the next day.
I want to give credit where credit is due. This is a word for word recipe from Once-a-Month-Cooking Family Favorites by Mimi Wilson and Mary Beth Lagerborg. I am going through this book for my weekly meal planning. The recipes are easy and tasty.
So delicious. We crushed some of the nuts for mixing in with the sauce which meant every bite got some of the nut taste.
