Ingredients
- 1 (about 200 g) chicken breast fillet, sliced horizontally
- 3 spring onions
- 5 black peppercorns
- ½ lemon, juiced
- 2 tbsp good-quality egg mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp chopped tarragon leaves
- ½ granny smith apple, cored, chopped
- ¼ tsp caraway seeds
- 6 slices Paddy the Baker’s Seriously Seedy Soda Bread (see Note), buttered
Chilling time: 2 hours
Instructions
Place chicken in a heavy-based frying pan with spring onions, peppercorns, lemon juice and 250 ml water. Cover with a piece of baking paper and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook chicken for 4 minutes each side or until cooked through. Transfer chicken to a plate. Set aside to cool.
Chop chicken and place in a bowl with mayonnaise, tarragon, apple and caraway seeds. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for 2 hours to allow flavours to develop. Top bread with chicken mixture and cut in half to serve.
