500 g (1.1 lbs) cooked chicken breast
Place in a serving bowl and top with flaked almonds, then serve as part of a salad or in a sandwich.
1 tbsp toasted almond flakes
Notes
Can I make it ahead?Yes, so long as your cooked chicken still has a good use-by date, this should keep well, covered in the refrigerator for 2 days.Can I freeze it?No I don't recommend freezing it. It's likely that the sauce will release water upon defrosting and may split.Ingredient swaps
Swap out the Greek yogurt for regular, natural yogurt.
Add in seeds - such as pumpkin or sunflower seeds, or pine nuts.
Use low fat mayo (and low fat yogurt) if you're looking for a lighter option.
Use spicy curry powder if you want the Coronation chicken to be hotter.
