Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

If you are serving your salad with coriander flatbreads, preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan. Cut the flatbreads in half, place onto a baking sheet and put into the preheated oven for 5 minutes to warm through.

Step 2

Whisk together 100mls olive oil, juice and zest of a whole lemon and 2 tsp Dijon mustard in a jug until emulsified. Stir in the 20g chopped tarragon and season to taste.

Step 3

Chop 2 avocados, 1 cucumber and 3 spring onion. Place in a large salad bowl, and toss together with mixed salad leaves, pomegranate seeds and half of your green herb dressing. Remove the skin from 4 cooked chicken breasts and slice into 2cm thick slices.

Step 4

Serve the salad salad topped with sliced chicken and the remaining dressing. Serve along side the warmed flatbreads, if using.
