Method

1

Start by boiling your 2 chicken breasts. In a medium pot, bring some water to a boil, then gently place the breasts in the water. This takes about 12 minutes, but check on it — it can take a little more or less depending on the thickness and size of your breasts.

2

Once cooked through, take them out of the water and let them cool. When cool enough, shred them apart with 2 forks and place in a mixing bowl.

3

Chop your red pepper into small cubes, discarding the centre and seeds.

4

Chop your pickles and purple onion into small bits as well, then add them to the bowl with the chicken.

5

Add your mayo, mustard, olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper and mix until well combined. It shouldn't be dry — it should feel well mixed, like a dip you could scoop up with chips.

6

Adjust your seasoning as you wish: a little sweeter, add more honey; a little tangier, add more vinegar…

Mona's tips

For a shortcut, use a rotisserie chicken instead of boiling your own and just shred it.

A hack to shred your chicken faster is a hand mixer or KitchenAid stand mixer. It does the job for you — but it adds more dishes to do.
