Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (shredded) Cooked chicken breast
- 0.5 cups Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cups Greek yogurt (plain)
- 1.5 teaspoons Curry powder
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.33 cups Golden raisins
- 2 stalks (finely sliced) Green onions
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Pepper
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, optional) Fresh parsley
- 4 large (halved horizontally) Croissants
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, curry powder, honey, and lemon juice. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
Add the shredded chicken to the bowl and mix well to coat it in the curry sauce.
Stir in the golden raisins, finely sliced green onions, salt, pepper, and chopped parsley (if using). Mix until evenly distributed.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if necessary by adding more salt, pepper, or curry powder.
Carefully slice the croissants in half horizontally, without cutting them all the way through.
Using a spoon, divide the curry chicken mixture evenly among the 4 croissants, spreading it on the bottom half of each croissant.
Close the croissants gently and serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the Curry Chicken Croissants as they are, or pair them with a side salad or chips for a complete meal.
