The Basics

• Dish: Snacks
• cuisine: English
• Serves: 6
• Prep Time: 0hrs 15 mins
• Cooking Time: 0hrs 30 mins

Ingredients

• 3 ½ lb  cooked chicken (or use 6 chicken breasts
• 5 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp mild or medium strength curry powder
• 3 tbsp mango chutney
• 2  medium sized mangoes – skinned and chopped in cubes
• 10  spring onions – roughly chopped
• 1-2 tbsp olive oil
•  Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 200g baby spinach leaves – ready washed
• Large bunch  Garnish:fresh coriander - roughly chopped

Method

1) If you are using ready cooked chicken – shred this into strips. Alternatively pre-heat the oven to 200ºC/400ºF/ Gas mark 6. Place the chicken breasts in an ovenware dish. Pour over some white wine and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook for 25 minutes and shred into strips. Discard the excess wine!
2) Heat a small frying pan with the olive oil. Sauté the spring onions with the curry powder for 2-3 minutes. This is just enough time for the onions to soften the spice to become alive!
3) Remove and place in a bowl. Mix this together with the mayonnaise, mango chutney, and mango. Season well.
4) Add this to the strips of chicken.

To serve the stylish way: Place the baby spinach leaves on the base of a large serving dish. Stir in the roughly chopped coriander in to the chicken and place on top of the spinach. Complete with a dusting of some freshly ground black pepper.
