Preparation

Step 1

After you’ve poached the chicken, allow to cool completely then shred into a bowl.
Add the celery, red onion and grapes.
In a separate bowl, mix together the mayo, yoghurt, lemon juice and seasoning.
Pour the dressing over the chicken and mix well. Adjust seasoning if necessary. (At this point, the salad can be served as is with lettuce).
To assemble the sandwich, top the slices of bread with lettuce, chicken salad and finish with the the micro herbs.
