Coronation Chicken
By Ocado
Published on 02 May 2023
This classic coronation chicken salad is just the right amount of fresh and familiar with some added crunch from more-ish poppadum croutons. We’ve shredded ready-cooked chicken breast but this would be delicious with leftover roast chicken breast and thigh, or even chickpeas for a veggie twist. Load up on a platter for the ultimate addition to a Coronation street party for King Charles, or perfect for picnics, lunchboxes, sandwich filler or even a jacket potato topper.
