Coronation Chicken Salad Sandwich in Honor of the Diamond Jubilee!


Sandwiches play a major role in my house and this is our new favorite filling.  The recipe for Coronation Chicken was devised especially by the royal cooks for  Queen Elizabeth II's coronation sixty years ago. I'm getting VERY excited for the upcoming Diamond Jubilee celebrations (to be held in June) and it's in honor of "Her Majesty!" that I am plying my family with British chicken salad.  It's actually delicious. 


I'm sure the royal cooks would understand that if you’re running short on time, use a rotisserie chicken from the supermarket.
