(April 15, 2021) For several years running, I’ve been meaning to make a British curried chicken salad known as Coronation Chicken Salad in honor of our island’s longstanding daffodil picnic traditions.
The famed salad is so named because it was created and served at the coronation banquet for Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. Somehow, numerous other chicken salads in my repertoire have won out and taken center stage at the picnics I’ve orchestrated over Aprils’ past, but this year as we join Queen Elizabeth and other members of the royal family in mourning the recent death of Prince Philip, making a batch of Coronation Chicken Salad seems like an appropriate and sentimental thing to do.
The Internet abounds with recipes for Coronation Chicken Salad and most of them bear little resemblance to the dish invented and served in 1953. For this reason, I quickly gravitated to a blog post written by Andrea Soranidis boasting a five-star-rated recipe for “The Original Coronation Chicken.”
