Ingredients

  • 500g bag new potatoes, halved if large
  • 1 ready-roasted chicken, about 900g
  • 150g pot low-fat yogurt
  • 1 tbsp clear honey
  • handful tarragon leaves, roughly chopped
  • 225g bag salad leaves
  • 4 roasted red peppers from a jar, sliced

Tip

Make it spicy, quicker or no-cook
To make it spicy tear up cooked tandoori-spiced chicken breasts and use chopped coriander or mint in the yogurt dressing instead of tarragon. To make it faster, buy ready-roasted chicken breasts instead of a whole bird and chop into bite-size pieces. Make it without cooking, swap the potatoes for a bag of ready-made croûtons.

Method

  1. Boil or steam the potatoes for 15-20 mins until tender, then cool quickly in cold water (it’s fine if they’re still a bit warm) and drain. Meanwhile, pull the meat off the roast chicken and tear into bite-size pieces.

  2. Mix the yogurt with the honey and tarragon, then season to taste. Toss the salad leaves, peppers, chicken and potatoes in a large bowl, drizzle the dressing over, then serve immediately.
