The chicken salad filling for these pastries takes inspiration from the one served at Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation luncheon. We kept the signature curry powder but made our own creamy dressing and added dried cranberries for a hint of sweetness. While most often used to make sandwiches (which you can and should do too), baking this filling up in flaky, buttery pastry results in an irresistible entertaining snack or even full-on dinner.
