GOLDEN ALMONDS
Boil a full kettle. Place the almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
GREEN BEANS
Place a pot (with a lid) of salted boiling water over high heat. Once bubbling, blanch the sliced green beans until al dente, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the pot, reserving the boiling water.
POACH THE CHICKY
Return the pot with the boiling water to medium heat. Add a good pinch of salt and stir until dissolved. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. Once simmering, add the chicken, cover, and poach until cooked through, 10-12 minutes. Remove from the pot and place on a cutting board. Using two forks (one to secure the chicken and the other to shred), gently shred the chicken and set aside.
EVERYONE’S INVITED
Drain the water from the pot and return the pot to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, fry the sliced onion until soft and translucent, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, add the curry powder (to taste). Remove from the pot and place in a bowl along with the chutney, the mayo, the shredded chicken, seasoning, and a squeeze of the lemon juice (to taste). Mix until combined.
PLATE IT UP!
Make a bed of the rinsed leaves and the blanched green beans. Top with the coronation chicken, the toasted almonds, the lemon zest, and the chopped parsley. Delicious, Chef!
