Curried Chicken with Chutney Roll-ups
Curried Chicken with Chutney Roll-ups are a big hit at every party.
My friend, Sonja, has called me the "Roll-up Guy" at a few of our parties.
Not sure if this silly name is good or bad but I do know why she does it.
One of my favorite things to make for a party of any kind is a Roll-up. To me they are just about the
perfect party food. They are quick and easy to make. Travel well. Are easy to carry around and eat. And they
taste delicious.
Another great thing about them is the fact that you can roll up almost anything so I will never run out of
new things to try.
I hope you enjoy.

Curried Chicken with Chutney Roll-ups are one of my biggest successes to date. I adapted this
from a chicken salad recipe to the roll-up format and everybody loved it at two different parties. I have gotten
three calls asking for the recipe, so far!
You may want to double the recipe for a large party. Trust me.
Curried Chicken with Chutney Roll-ups
Ingredients:
- ½ cup Chutney (see note below)
- ¾ cup Mayonnaise
- 1 - 2 tablespoones Curry Powder
- ¼ cup Sweetened Shredded Coconut, toasted (see directions
- 1 pound Roasted Chicken, diced (see note below)
- ¾ cup Green and/or Red Seedless Grapes, cut in halves
- ½ cup sliced Almonds, toasted (see directions)
- Salt and Pepper
- Pack of 10 - 20 Flour Tortillas - 10 to 12 inches size
Directions:
- Place almonds in a large frying pan and heat over medium, shaking often, until they
darken.
- Place coconut on a cookie sheet and broil in an oven until darkened slightly. Watch
it closely as it will burn quickly. You can omit this toasting and use the coconut as is and the roll-ups will
taste just as good.
- Combine the chutney, mayonnaise, curry powder and coconut in a large
bowl.
- Gently mix in the chicken, grapes and almonds.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Lay out tortillas and put about a tablespoon of the mixture in the center of each.
Hint - Do them one at a time and you'll get better at estimating the best amount as you go.
- Roll each tortilla as you would a burrito or egg roll starting at one side and
folding in the ends. Stick a toothpick through each end (about 1 inch from the end) to hold the edge in
place.
- Cut each roll-up in half and place on plate.
Weekend Griller Tips:
Note on Chutney - If your stores are anything like the ones here in
Louisville, chutney will be next to impossible to find -- if they carry it at all. Save yourself some time and just
ask where it is as soon as you walk in the door. Trust me -- you'll thank me for this.
Note on Chicken - Left over chicken works great with this. Or I have used a rotisserie chicken
from Kroger. "Easy to make" is my motto. I have not tried this with BBQ chicken yet but plan to. I'll let you know
how it works.
