A Coronation Chicken recipe, please?!

castadiva

Hi,

I've just been asked to bring a Coronation Chicken dish to a picnic this weekend, and wondered if anyone has a recipe that is less-than-disastrous in terms of calories, but still tastes good? Ideally one that the majority of those consuming won't realise has had substitutions...

Anyone?

I like this one: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/1237/easy-coronation-chicken.aspx
They suggest half mayo and half creme fraîche to lower the calories, but I find using less mayo in general is nicer and chutney has fewer calories than mayo too, so can boost with that as well. I also use light mayonnaise as you can't really notice the difference when it's mixed with the creme fraîche.

I mix roughly 2tbsp of low fat mayo and 2 tbsp of low sugar apricot jam and a tsp of curry powder, so tasty!
