Ingredients

Dressing:

2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup commercial chutney
3 tablespoons mild curry powder

Sandwich:

6 bone-in chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/2 cup dark raisins
3/4 cups finely chopped celery
4 croissants

Directions

To make the dressing: Combine the mayonnaise with the chutney and the curry powder in a small bowl. Mix well and set aside.

To prepare the sandwiches: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper then put them in a large skillet. Add water to cover. Put a lid on the skillet and simmer the chicken until it is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove the chicken from the poaching liquid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. When the chicken is chilled remove the skin and cut the meat from the bones. Dice the meat and place it in a large bowl. Add the walnuts, raisins, and celery and mix well. Moisten the salad with the curry dressing. Cut the croissants in half. Fill each with chicken salad and serve.

I made this recipe because I wanted to try a change from my regular chicken salad. It was fantastic. I did use boneless... skinless chicken breats & I did not have the chutney in my pantry though so I sub'd it with orange marmalade and it was just heavenly. I served it over a bed of fresh greens and delicate crackers. I will be making this recipe often. A+++++ all the way. Thanx Food Network.Read more

I didn't add the chutney (didn't have any in the pantry), and it was wonderful. It was a huge hit at a potluck, and I'll be... making it again and often!Read more

Creative deli sandwich.
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I really enjoyed this sandwich. My husband and I just love chicken curry recipes so this was right up our alley. The added... celery, walnuts and raisins made it a unique and flavoraful meal. But the best was placing it all in a light and fluffy crossiant. Great idea and great recipe. Thank you for sharing it with us.Read more
