Coronation Chicken

Coronation Chicken

with Savoy cabbage and Parsley Potatoes

Coronation Chicken is a dish with a chequered history. Invented in 1953 for the coronation of our dear old Queen, it was considered elegant dinner party fare for a couple of decades before falling into disrepute as a soggy sandwich filling. We think the combination of mango chutney and curry powder is a happy and glorious one so have reinvented this retro classic as a warm dish with some potato and cabbage on the side. Enjoy!

Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

Instructions

Do the Prep
1

Put a large saucepan of water with a generous pinch of salt on to boil for the potatoes. Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion into half moons. Quarter the new potatoes. Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all). Cut the cabbage in half through the root and shred into 1cm wide slices. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Zest the lemon. Chop the chicken into roughly 1cm sized pieces (wash your hands afterwards!).

Cook the Potatoes
2

Add the potatoes to your pan of boiling water and cook for 15-20 mins. TIP: The new potatoes are cooked when you can easily slip a knife through. When done, drain in a colander, return to the pan and pop a lid on to keep warm. Meanwhile, put the chicken pieces in a mixing bowl and add the lemon zest. Season with salt and black pepper and mix well.

Brown the Chicken
3

Put a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, 6-7 mins. TIP: Cook the chicken in batches if you need to as you want it to brown not stew. Once cooked, remove from the pan and set aside. Add a little more oil to the pan, lower the heat to medium and add the onion. Cook until soft, 6-7 mins, then add the curry powder and mango chutney and cook for 1 minute more.

Make the Sauce
4

Return the chicken to the pan and add the raisins. Stir well and cook for another minute. Add the water (amount specified in the ingredient list) and the crème fraîche. Stir to combine, bring to a simmer and cook until reduced slightly, 5 mins. TIP: Don't let it boil or the sauce might split! Remove from the heat, stir through half the parsley and squeeze in some lemon juice to taste.

Cook the Cabbage
5

Put a knob of butter (if you have some, if not use a drizzle of oil) in another frying pan on medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, then add the cabbage. Season with salt and black pepper. Stir and cook until the cabbage has wilted slightly, 3-4 mins.

Finish and Serve
6

While the cabbage is cooking, add the remaining chopped parsley to your potatoes along with a knob of butter (if you have some - if not use a glug of oil instead). Lightly crush the potatoes with a fork, mixing in the butter and parsley. Serve your warm coronation chicken on plates with some cabbage and potatoes on the side. God save the Queen!
