High Protein Coronation Chicken Salad

This high protein coronation chicken salad is a lighter, modern take on a classic British favorite, designed to deliver bold flavor without feeling heavy. By combining creamy Greek yogurt with just a touch of mayonnaise, this version keeps the texture rich and satisfying while boosting protein and freshness. Warm curry spices, naturally sweet dried apricots, and crisp celery create the signature coronation balance of savory, sweet, and aromatic in every bite.

Perfect for meal prep, quick lunches, or protein-focused dinners, this salad is both nourishing and versatile. It works beautifully on its own, spooned into lettuce cups, served with gluten free bread, or paired with a simple side salad. It’s the kind of dish that feels indulgent yet supports energy, satiety, and balanced nutrition — ideal for busy days when you still want real flavor and substance.
