GOURMET CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH
This is an adult version of a childhood favourite. As kids, we had lots of chicken and sweetcorn sandwiches and I wanted to upgrade the flavor profile of the mixture as I got more experimental with my cooking. I have added yoghurt to the recipie so its healthier than just mayo alone! It's got the sweet and tart of cranberries...

Steps:
- 1. First, clean chicken breast and remove excess fat and bits.
- 2. Then, cut into small pieces. About 1 inch cubes.
- 3. Marinate chicken cubes with garlic and ginger paste, and salt and pepper (or soy sauce.) I use soy sauce when I can because I feel it adds more depth to the flavor.
- 4. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a saucepan over the stove on medium heat.
- 5. Add the stock to the pan.
- 6. Next add the marinated chicken cubes.
- 7. Boil the chicken in the stock until the chicken is fully cooked through. I like to start breaking apart the chicken at this stage. It helps in two ways: first it tells me that the chicken is cooked; and second, it give me a head start in the shredding process.
- 8. Take the pan off the heat and begin to shred the chicken using two forks. Keep any remaining liquid in the pan as you will need for your mixture.
- 9. Leave chicken to cool in its own juices.
- 10. In a seperate mixing bowl, add yoghurt and mayo and mix.
- 11. Chop up the spring onions and the avacado.
- 12. Add chopped avacado and spring onions ot the mixing bowl. I always throw in the pit of the avacado in the mixture to keep the chopped avacado from turning brown.
- 13. Add dried cranberries and mix.
- 14. Finally add the room temperature shredded chicken along with any residual juices from the saucepan. Should not be that much, about a tablespoon or so.
- 15. Mix it all up and finally add cracked black peppercorns, salt, and sugar to taste!
