These Coronation Chicken tea sandwiches combine shredded chicken with a creamy, tangy mango chutney and curry mayo mixture, perfect for tea time, parties, or casual snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (300g) cooked chicken breast or thigh, shredded
  • ⅓ cup (80ml) mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons (45g) mango chutney
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 small celery stalk, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 810 slices soft white bread, crusts removed
  • Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Shred the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces, about 2 cups (300g).
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine ⅓ cup (80ml) mayonnaise, 3 tablespoons (45g) mango chutney, 1 teaspoon curry powder, and 1 tablespoon (15ml) fresh lemon juice. Stir until smooth and well blended.
  3. Add the finely chopped celery stalk and 2 tablespoons finely diced red onion to the bowl.
  4. Gently fold the shredded chicken into the mayo mixture. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  5. Remove crusts from 8 to 10 slices of soft white bread. Lightly toast if desired.
  6. Spread the Coronation Chicken mixture evenly over half of the bread slices. Top with the remaining slices to make sandwiches. Press gently to secure.
  7. Cut the sandwiches into neat rectangles or triangles using a sharp knife or sandwich cutter. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired.

Notes

If the mixture feels too wet, chill for 10-15 minutes before spreading to prevent soggy bread. Prepare chicken filling up to a day ahead and assemble sandwiches just before serving for best freshness. For low-carb, use cucumber slices or low-carb bread alternatives. For dairy-free, use vegan mayo and gluten-free bread.
