This recipe came into my mind today as I was contemplating the pack of chicken breasts waiting patiently on my bench while I decided how to eat today's chicken for lunch

And .... wait for it .... THIS WAS AMAZING!

Of course, I did my Crumbed Chicken somewhat differently to flutterby's recipe but that's what we all do with recipes, and flutterby is right about workmates .... with my New Job coming up, having a few lunch box type recipes is a priority. I can see that this recipe, cooked and chilled in it's tuck box the night before, would be almost the ideal Eat-At-Work meal!

And one Quick Tip from this recipe: Adding a splash to the mayonnaise allowance. Flutterby suggests adding a teaspoon of water to the seasoned mayonnaise but I added a teaspoon of White Wine Vinegar with a shake of dried Tarragon, mixed that around in the bowl before tipping in the cooked chicken & zucchini and this meant I could sort of lift the food around rather than my usual experience with dressing, being a blob in the middle and nothing remaining for the last few mouthful!

My Rating: Great, Mate, a tasty, quick & easy, very transportable chicken meal!

Lotsa love
