Cooking Instructions
- Heat a large frying pan on medium heat. Add the almonds and toast for 2-3 mins, until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Reheat the frying pan with 1 tbsp oil medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sprinkle over the curry powder. Season generously with sea salt and cook for 7-10 mins, until golden all over and cooked through. Check your chicken is cooked through by cutting a large piece in half; the flesh should be white and the juices running clear. Cook for longer if necessary, then remove from the heat and stir in the yoghurt.
- Meanwhile, make the salad; trim and roughly chop the lettuce. Finely dice the chilli (removing the seeds for less heat). Finely slice the spring onions. Dice the mango into 1cm cubes. To a large bowl, add the lettuce, spinach, mango, rice, half the chilli and half the spring onions. Season with a pinch of sea salt.
- Make the dressing; roughly chop the coriander. Zest 1 lime. In a small bowl, combine the sesame oil, coriander, lime zest and juice from both limes. Mix well. Pour over the salad and toss to combine.
- Serve the salad on plates and top with the coronation chicken. Sprinkle with the almonds, remaining spring onions and chilli (to taste).
