How to Make It

01
Poach the chicken

Submerge chicken in cold water with salt, bay leaf, peppercorns, and lemon half. Bring to a simmer and poach 15–18 minutes. Remove and rest in the liquid as it cools.

02
Make herb yoghurt

Blend Greek yoghurt with dill, mint, tarragon, garlic, and lemon juice. Should be vibrantly green and taste of fresh herbs.

03
Shred or slice chicken

Slice thinly against the grain or pull into large shreds. Poached chicken has a silky texture that sliced chicken cannot match.

04
Assemble freshly

Arrange cucumber and avocado. Lay chicken over and around. Spoon herb yoghurt generously over everything. Top with extra dill fronds.
