Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup Plain low-fat yogurt
• 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Mango chutney
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted curry powder
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup Dried apricots, finely chopped
• 0.25 cup Sliced almonds, toasted
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground

Directions

Step 1

Place the boneless skinless chicken breasts in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Remove from heat, let cool slightly, and then shred the chicken using two forks.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the plain low-fat yogurt, mayonnaise, mango chutney, unsalted curry powder, and lemon juice. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Add the shredded chicken to the yogurt mixture. Stir until all the chicken is well coated with the sauce.

Step 4

Fold in the finely chopped dried apricots, toasted sliced almonds, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix gently to combine and distribute the ingredients evenly.

Step 5

Chill the coronation chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 6

Before serving, sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro. Serve on a bed of mixed greens, in a sandwich, or with rice salad.
