The Classic 1953 Coronation Chicken Salad Recipe Recipe - Food.com

Descrition:

This is my adaptation of the much loved and famous recipe created by Constance Spry for the Queens 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; dont 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 And Rosemary Hulme (1956.
